Interior/Exterior New stripes on Cooper S
Ficcion,
Those look super! Gives the car even more great classic style and you'd be hard pressed to find another like it.
Question: Are the stripes, especially those going on the bonnet, cut curved to compensate for the curves of the body? Or do they cut them straight and stretch over the curves in order to get a straight looking finished product? Just curious.
Cheers,
James

They look great! A more subdued look than the factory bonnet stripes, which don't have the same character as the Mini's stripes. Did you do these stripes yourself, or who did?
Is the finish a bit satin? They don't look as refective as the paint.
Cheers,
Ryan
P.S. the sun looks bright as ever in CO, there's rarely that issue in MI

The stripes are just your basic vinyl stripes cut straight then "gently" strecthed over the curves. You have to kind of design it so you avoid serious curves because it can become difficult in those areas. :smile:
