I am looking for a site that specilizes in MINI roof decals. I have a sun roof on my "S" and want something different than the flags or checkers that are on the market. :evil:

Our company specializes in roof decals for the Cooper. We offer much more than the standard check/flag designs you see on the market today. Our web site will be up and running around November 1. Please feel free to shoot me a message and let me know what you are looking for as I'm sure we will be able to help you out. All of our products are 3M and work well with the sunroof.

Hey BadSmini, is there any chace of getting an Australian flag for my roof? And would it be a major task to put it on and have it look good?

BadsMINI:
On a somewhat related note, I'm trying to find a solution to a nasty problem that we have in San Francisco. The local parking authority makes us use a parking sticker on the left rear bumper that uses a very strong adhesive. The thing cannot be removed later on without removing or ruining the pain.

I'm looking for some type of decal or clear or white patch that I can attach this darn parking sticker to and then attach this decal to my bumper. I'd like it to weather about a year of mild SF seasons and monthly washings but remove easily after that.

Is there a good 3M or other product that a regular MINI owner like me can get my hands on?
Thanks.

If I were you, I'd fond somewhere that sells and applies the 3M stoneguard, and see if you can snag a square of it big enough to put your parking sticker on. That stuff is tough, and can be removed.

The Aussie Flag is not a problem to produce and not that hard to install. We include install instructions and we will also have a place on our site which will give step by step instructions, w/photos, of an installation that you can download and print off.

If you are not the do-it-youself type guy we can give you a list of "prefered" 3M instalers in your area.

Kensmini - how big is this required decal? You could probably buy one of the State decals they have in the vending machines at the dealer, then put the parking one on over it. Only have to spend 25 cents.

Send me the specs on your MINI and I'll get you a quote and turnaround time on Monday when my production guys get in. I will need to see something from Coop to know that he has authorized use of his art. I think this will look very good.

Matt,
I have in order status an '03 BRG S with white roof and dual sunroof. I am looking for a sunroof decal Union Jack. I do know that Carvogue has one and would like to get one ordered in the country.
Thanks Paul G McGregor

CarVogue in UK is very good. They have roof decals designed to fit on the sunroofs too. I read somewhere that they are going to be available in USA through Moss Motorsports soon.

Rugbyre - The UJ is no problem and will be one of our core offerings. If you can wait a few weeks I can take care of your request. Our product will also be 3M which will carry their warrenty.

Hey BadS!

Do you or someone out there know what the roof decals look like for the sunroof cars? Pictures would be great. Looking for the UJ.

Matt...
I'm reasonably handy, the only concern is getting high enough to work on the roof on my MINI.

Any idea what kind of price for something like that? I don't have a sunroof in my black roof. Of course, I don't have the car yet either, but...

If it were me I'd find a bumper sticker and use that as a backer for your parking sticker. Cut the bumper sticker the exact same size as the parking sticker and nobody will ever know. Use a hair dryer to get the bumper sticker off.
