I like the silver over the black, even though I'm partial to a red car with white stripes..

That's what I went with. If I had to do it again I'd probably go with no stripes. It never occurred to me at the time for some reason.

My two cents as a former CR/B R56. Black stripes al the way [although my Roadster will be Blck with red stripes.] Also forgo the factory stripes and go with a local stripe dealer. It will be cheaper and you can do anything you want. We are putting carbon Fiber stripes on my wife's red Countryman. Also, extend them down the bumper front and rear. Looks much better.

I saw 8 or 9 roadsters at MINI's ON TOP (MOT) not one the same. In fact I saw 309 MINI's and not one the same as another...

So, first here is black stripes..

I have only seen one roadster on the road since December when I got my roadster and that was during vacation down in Delaware.. It was the dark gray with black stripes..
