Your right, It's way cool & I'd love to have it, but if I buy one more car, I'll have to buy another house to keep it at & I've got two of them now (houses):impatient

That looks cool, but why isn't the graphic parellel on the left and right of the front bumber?

The photo is off-kilter, not the graphic. Look at the roofline and the top edge of the windshield -- they're not parallel to the top edge of the photo.

By the way, this car was done by Todd Pearson from Kansas City, one of the guys from the fantastic MINI podcast WhiteRoof Radio.

I think it looks rediculous! Plus the white outline on the diagnol red stripe looks of from the right one. Missplaced sense of patriotism it would seem! hahahaha
