definetelly unique, but sorry, I am just not feeling that.

I also think leaving the back colored black would have given the union Jack a nice border.

we are all like snowflakes

I like that Union Jack back thing (and I'm not big on the decal thing usually). It fits the backend really well. Nice job.

I would keep the black pieces, but I love the Union Jack!

Where did you get it?

I have not been a real fan of the non-body color panels. Your solution looks great. The UJ is also terrific, perhaps reason enough to get a Clubman.

You turned a Clubman into a bloody station wagon!

Looks too good! The rear doors are a perfect place for a UJ.
