Thanks & Thanks. I have also added a checkered rear view mirror cap. I think that's enough checerboard. Any more would just be tacky or I could paint the whole Mini checkered

Have been thinking about painting that bit white - but not sure how it would look.
Did you use a decal? Please let me know how you did this.
You baby looks very hot. Congratulations!

Meet Scarlett - my wife's MCC and the original source of our MINI addiction! I have my own MCS and we're talking about adding another

More recent photo at an AX event but taken before we added the MCS side skirts.


And an older photo - we had the stripes put on one week after picking her up (hence the paper temp tags)

Hey Jay, I was checking your Gallery and noticed something peculiar. How the hell did you get that chrome racing gas cap on!! I've been checking them out but the vendor tells me it only fits the S and not the Cab. Please share your secret with us...

zz Ed at Cooper Flags ( www.cooperflags.com ) did my checkered roof decal. I installed it myself, it was easy. I am sure he can do a white one for you or hec go crazy & get something wild put up there

Loved those MINIs since they first came out with them, but when I found out they made a cabrio, it was love at first sight.

Here's mine!

Love the look. Did you black yours out with black-out tape. That's how I did mine.

One more pic of my sweetie with the blacked-out grille:
