Decal Template

Does anyone have the template or vector file for this Countryman R60 hood sticker?
As for the measurements and looking at the picture, I think I can take them myself in my Cooper hood, but a template/vector file ready would be perfect to pass it to the vinyl shop since I'm sure the stripes are curved, not just straight

1. Isn't this a 'show car' and not a regularly available option????

2. If this IS a regularly available option, wouldn't the pattern be proprietary .. aka legally protected?

Cape_bj makes 2 good points.

And if you really want something like this, you could have someone design it similar, but with say a 20%+ difference in the design and not break the proprietary laws .. and have something you really prefer.

I would have the vinyl shop do the stripes with knife-less tape so they are solid and not with the gaps in the stripes. MINI puts those in because the contours of the hood bulge would cause the edges to suck in and look wavy. The knife-less tape method will make the stripes look like painted stripes with straight edges.

1) No, it is not an available option locally nor can be bought through official Mini shop. It could be a "show car", I really don't know.

2) N/A by answer 1

Thanks for your advice!
I hadn't thought that this drawing could be related to the hood shape, thank you for commenting.
I really like the design, in fact I would like it with the "circle" a little more" thick" and I would add pin-stripes to make it customised.
And so as not to violate any intellectual property, of course
