7 years later and I just hit 40k miles on my 2009 FJCW

I have not posted on NAM in forever but I thought I would share some pics.

My very loaded up but stock factory JCW back in December of 2008

A few mods later... This is what my car currently looks like even though this pic is from 2013

What a transformation! Looks very well done and only 40k miles? Not bad!

Where did you get those decals for the doors? I could go for some of those!

The company that printed up the vinyl stripes has been out of business for a long time. I have been told that you could take this picture to any shop that prints up vinyl decals (like how they wrap cars and buses) and they could do this for you. You could also ask at your local dealer.

Also here is the build thread from my car in case any one else is interested in the mods I did and where the parts or services came from.

Just google for "MINI Challenge stripes" -

This looks like a good link. I am sure there are many others:

You can also contact www.mightystripes.com and see if they will do custom side decals like this for you. Go to their FAQ page at #9 for information on how to contact them for the decals.
