Agreed. Very, very nicely done. I love it.

I ordered the black jack through our local Mini dealership, Baron Mini. They installed it too. Baron is a fabulous dealership with wonderful employees. Call around locally to shops that tint windows, customize cars they could help you.

Lil Blue: any chance of a photo from within the car looking UP at the moonroof, during the day? I'm curious what you see from under that translucent graphic...

Sorry, I do not have a sunroof. That's the one thing this mini is missing! This was the last 2012 Countryman S they had on the lot, so I bought it because they gave me a deal I could not refuse!

We had them put stripes on my husband's clubman that we carried onto the sunroof. His clubby is spice orange with a black roof so we had them put black rally stripes on the orange and orange metallic on the black roof/sunroof. It looks cool looking through the sunroof.

Finally picked up Mango from the dealer on 4/9/2013. Couldn't be happier. It's a 2013 JCW CM absolute blackw/ a white hat. Will post better pictures when I get around to taking them.

Looks quite nice! I also picked my AB non-S model on 4/9 but havent taken it out much since we have had around 7" of snow since that night here in MN..quite a bummer if you ask me. One of these days the snow will actually stop and I can post some pics.

Thank you. We don't have to deal with snow in Southern California so I've been driving quite a bit. Already put 130 miles on it in 2 days.

Post your pics when you get a chance, it's always nice to see what people do to their MINI's.

Lol, good choice. We won't dress alike because we will have different mods.

To pass the time while the ship chugs across the Atlantic, I've been tasked with photoshop exercises to test out stripe patterns for my wife and young daughter to choose from...

Looks great, but I especially like the lime green S's and 4's. Nice touch.

I totally agree. I've posted a thread on racing stripes. The matte stripes are on the top of my list. Not sure if i'll go with plasti dip or matte vinyl stripes? Also been kicking around stripe designs.
