It would look good with them on the insides as well, but it actually looks really nice with them just on the outside.

I think it would look good either way. I probably would have opted for both sides.

I would keep it the way it is. I think it would be to much if the insides were done also.

With the red on the outside it makes it look like the two stripes are united as one stripe but at the same time are two stripes.
I like it as is...

I actually like it how it is right now. Pretty slick.
Does it bug you that much?

I agree. Leave it as is. All the mini's ive seen with both sides pinstriped just look too busy. Plus you are agrivation free since you dont have to fiddle around with the dealership abou redoing the stripes

i could go either way. Since it is already done this way (and it looks like a good job) leave good enough alone.

Just a touch of red with the black and silver is nice. Especially if you plan to do other red accents... mirror caps, wheel center caps, etc.
I'd leave it as is.

Looks great as is. Just enough red to add some intrigue, but not too busy. I'd leave it alone and go motoring.

The red really highlights the stripes. One side is prolly the trick. Subtle, yet bold.

oooo, don't let PGT see that unless you want to be hassled by a drama queen. Nah, I'm mostly just kidding. I think your stripes look awesome.

I think they're perfect as they are!
They wanted to give me sport stripes with white along the edges, like with the standard bonnet stripes -- I said no thanks. Straight-up black for me, please!
I dig your red outlines, though!

Like it just the way it is.
That red accent is subtle, yet really makes it pop. Very unique.

Leave them as they are. Looks sharp.
Did you have them done on the back as well?
