got the stripes in yesterday! they are like stickers with glue in the back. i wanted to put it on yesterday but its 30' F outside :(
if there is a way to find out the exact distance between the two stripes that would be great.

thanks, guys.
i was originally thinking of ordering my Cooper in BRGII with the standard white factory stripes but at the last minute decided to go whole-hog with a retro-brit theme sorta like i recall admiring on the late 60's/early 70's BLMC MGB/MG-B GT & Midget roadsters.
The green pillars were something I'd never seen done before and wasn't sure if it would even be possible given the sharpness of the contoured ridge on the C pillar. I think it came off pretty well, all-in all, and pulls the whole theme together.
anywhoo... prolly not to everyone's taste but it works for an olde farte like moi.
