Hi people

I'll get my MCS soon and I am struggling about if I should add white bonnet stripes on my Electric Blue MCS or not, since both looks great, any opinion or suggestions?
Any input would be appreciated, thank a lot!

I should have my red MC next weekend...hopefully. I'm having the dealer put on the MCS white stripes (with the black pinstriping). Crevier in Santa Ana, CA is bending me over for them....$180, installed. The stripes retail for $80! $100 to have them stick 'em on! I'll see if I can get that price down. But definately must have the stripes!

I think the MCS looks its best with stripes. It's just an opinion though. I just think since in the past all the fast production Coopers had stripes, it just calls for the MCS to have them.

Just IMO though
Cheers

xbritt - why not install them yourself? My brother and I installed Sprog's bonnet stripes AND Union Jack in about an hour. All you need is a little squeegie and a bottle of windex. Spray the area down reall good, stick the s ticker on, center it how you like it, then squeegie it down. Saves yourself money. :smile: I only spend around $140 for both with a vendor's liscence, which I fell is already too much.
