My Silver Bean is DS/B and I wasn't sure about the bonnet stripes, but decided to go with them. I've been happy, though I think it would look great either way.
On one hand, I see a beautiful MINI. It's one of the classic colors and I'm very fond of PW. On the other hand, I see a blank canvas with unlimited possibilities to make it more unique and even more gorgeous. Plain black bonnet stripes would keep the classic look while dressing it up just a bit.
Take a look at my Gallery if you want to see a PW/B MC with black bonnet stripes to help determine if you like that look. Those stripes we have are the black with white pinstripes.
