Hehe, thanks. You know, the Brits and the French have such a... pleasant history together.

Absolutely nothing. Dad has a spray booth. I just didn't work for a week, spent 80 some hours designing it.

Jeremy, your car is awesome. I look forward to seeing it every year at MOTD. I hope you inspire many more members to the UJOC. Maybe I'll join when I get my next MINI in 2008.

Where is Stow, Ohio? I think doing a full UJ paint job is a little over the top...if your by Cinci...we should met up sometime. I want to UJ wing mirror covers...or maybe the rearvier mirror cover, and a Shredded Jack roof decal.

I Have the OEM U/J vinyl sticker, but that still qualifies me as an active member, no?

The way I see it, an Union Jack is an Union Jack and to be honest there are not that very MINIs to be found with roof flags OEM or otherwise.

Don't get me wrong... I respect the "admission" rules of your club but I am afraid that your full body UJ flag arragement is very, very rare and like someone before me said, you'll probably be the only member.

I think that having a U/J in the roof is a bold statement all on itself....shall we be more open in terms of non-custom painted flags?

So you have to have a full flag? What about a whole roof? I mean just mirror caps wouldn't cut it, but a whole roof should! Well, let us know if you change the requirements. I dont think that there is any one else on NAM with a full flag paint job. Well, heres my roof!

C4, Jeremy (Sarcux) enjoys being dictator-for-life of his UJ club! I have a custom silver-tone Union Jack sunroof flag, but I figured I didn't make the UJ Club cut!

Ooooh...but I could make Wanda a full body chrome/silver/dark silver/black/white flag! Hmmmmmmmm.....

You painted the sunroof too? Looks great, and solves the problem of not being able to shut the sun out when it gets really hot.

Actually, Clo is right - I do wanna be dictator for life. See, Yucca was kind enough to get my personal thread closed, so I need something to inflate my ego! Hehehe.

I just saw a photo yesterday of two Union Jack cars, but I'll be darned if I can find it again. Of course, they are done with vinyl and not Jeremy's uber-cool paint job. Still....

I could've sworn I saw the photo on NAM somewhere but now I can't find it.
