I think they look amazing. Best $25 spent thus far on the mini!

Looks great, I'm sure others would like to see the link to Ebay product. My Countryman could use some new stripes.

I used to live around the Syracuse area. There is a little place north of that that had something like six feet in one day.

Looks beautiful! Was wondering, the ebay link only mentions years 2015-2017. I know there was a mild R60 refresh somewhere in 2013/2014, I have a 2012 R60. Do you think there was any change to the hood? Will this still fit mine?

I think all hoods were the same. I don't see it being an issue.

They look great. Did you install yourself? If so, you did a nice job. Is it easy to keep them straight?

my clear bra installer coached me on one stripe, he did the other. Applying it was VERY easy and forgiving. Measuring where I wanted them on the other hand took forever since there wasn't any right or wrong way to apply them....just had to be symmetrical.
