Any pics of gold bonnet stripes??

I am wanting to put gold bonnet stripes on my BRG Cabrio. Anyone with pictures of gold stripes? I see that MightyStripes has gold but I can't find any pics of them on their web site.

Thanks,
Lois

This MINI was at the Kansas City rally last October. Hope he doesn't mind the publicity! Looked really sharp and attracted quite alot of attention.

I'm looking at metallic gold. A little more subdued. Like gold dust. That is a sharp looking MINI though.

Thanks,
Lois

Unfortunately, the MightyStripes bonnet stripes were very gaudy. That's the price I paid for not being able to see a picture of the color. Anybody want some gold very bright metallic, sparkly stripes? Would look good on a bass boat

Lois, once I did see gold pinstripes on a BRG Cooper which included a small MINI logo, also in gold. I thought it was a very classy looking combo.

I wonder if they came from the dealer? I have ordered a set of gold stripes from a local sign company. They will be RAMS gold. The company makes signs for the STL RAMS Subdued with a hint of metallic in sun light.

w/ all Sunnie's Cordoba Beige showin' those gold stripes will look completely fantastic! btw, the pinstripes I saw were done by the dealer...apparently they subbed the job out to a local shop.

Thanks Ed,
Too bad, I didn't speak to you first. I did pick up my bonnet stripes from the local sign shop today & they are exactly what I visioned. They will be installed tomorrow. I'll post pics since it looks like I'll have one of a very few BRG MINIs with gold bonnet stripes

Hi Lois, let us know how those gold stripes work out for Sunnie. I've been considering a subtle "frost" stripe for my Dactyl, the BRG/gr MCC. I assume you're just doing the bonnet?

Cheers,
:smile: Teri

Lois,

Any chance you still have the first gold metalic stripes still available?

They might look good on my wife's solid gold MC. I saw that combo a while back but I'll have to look for the picture if you are looking to unload yours.
