Union Jack Side Scuttles
I've ordered my MCS Clubman with Union Jack inserts in the side scuttles (that bit on the side next to the blinkers) to replace the "S" logo. In my opinion, a MINI needs a Union Jack somewhere, and that's where my Irish wife was willing to compromise.
My question is if anyone else has done this on a BRG body. I think that the Union Jacks will certainly stand out, but I'm starting to wonder if they'll clash with the body color. Since it's a dealer-installed accessory, I guess I could just make sure that they save the S-logo scuttles and replace them later if I want. Still, it would be great to hear from anyone else who's tried this on a body color other than a blue, red, or white (where I most commonly have seen these Union Jack scuttles).

That looks interesting. Is that just a Union Jack sticker that goes over the standard scuttle with no complicated installation? It looks like it certainly would be cheaper, if nothing else, but also looks pretty great. Thanks.
