Does any of you have some pictures of a Midnight Black R56 with green or lime bonnet stripes? Thanks

I've seen a lime green R56 with black highlights, but not a black MINI with green stripes, sorry.

I don't have pictures but I've seen a black MCS with lime green sport stripes and it looks really cool.

Depends entirely on the color and quality of lime stripes. A good intense, high saturation, lime green could look striking. If it is a cleap-looking vinyl, yea, it would be tacky.

Guess Ide have to see it. But it doesn't sound very appealing

You might be on to your own unique color scheme. You could have a lot of fun with all the little bits you could paint lime green.

Lime green Joey Mod... that would sizzle!

In the current edition of Modern Mini there's a matte black GP with lime green stripes. The black is applied vinyl, but it still looks pretty cool.
