MCS - Sport Stripes, Bonnet Stripes, or No Stripes
 

For those with a 2007-2009 MCS, curious if you have the sport stripes (twin parallel stripes down the center of the hood and/or boot), bonnet stripes (thin stripes on either side of the hood scoop), or no stripes. And if you have something customized, feel free to post pics. :thumbsup:

See my gallery :)

OOOOhhhh nice!!! :thumbsup:

Mine wil be the opposite of yours. Will post picts when I get it in 2.5 weeks. :popcorn:

Btw, I was listening to this week's podcast on Motoring file and they said that ppl are ordering the sports stripes 2 to 1 over the bonnet stripes. Sounds like the sports stripes are going to be more common in 2009.

Thanks!
The 2 front to front would make for a great picture :)

my gallery has some pics as well

go with the sport stripes :thumbsup:

I currently have the bonnet strips but would love to get Grand Sport stripes ala the 1996 corvette.

Bonnet stripes but I would have preferred the sport stripes.

Mine are homemade, not my design but my work...

Grand Sport Stripes? Think those might just be a bit to wide and heavy looking given the size of the vehicle.

Think I am leaning towards the Sport Stripes at this point. Actually prefer the look and think the Bonnet Stripe look has become too common.

I agree 100%. That's why I got the SS, way too many B stripes around. I don't want to see a clone of my car, and I have not yet :)

I ahve the standard stripes and going to change them and paint Viper stripes on next month. I really like both ways and even thought about no stripes at all...as you can see I am confused.

I only have a Justacooper but..

I doubt I'll see a clone of my car anytime soon.

No stripes.

No stripes, I prefer it that way.

I like the U bonnet stripe but it can be harder to find.

Seems to depend on the color; darker colors seem to look better with no stripes; lighter colors kind of need something.

Which one is the U bonnet stripe?

No stripes and body colored roof. The Mini is a small plain car. Gawding it up with stripes wasn't my taste.

Small & Plain...really?

All factory parts on the outside with the exception of the scoop...Bonnet stripes have been on Mini's for a long time and I do not see Gawdy...more like a style. I think about 95% or more on this forum have bonnett stripes that makes 95% of the cars here Gawdy:eek:

Seems like you are starting to see more of the Sport Stripes than you use to.

I have noticed that....I kind of like the Viper stripes to

i love stripes on the Mini and think it really completes the look. i have the bonnet stripes on mine, but the sport stripes would be a close second if done right.

Done right? Can you clarify? Just like the bonnet stripes, when ordering them, there is a specific location they are placed; right down the center of the hood.
