The MINI site says they are RRP 99 pounds , 2.5 hours fitting - I asked the guy how much of that cost was fitting and he tells me 150 pounds. So 190 for the actual stripes?!

Going to ring around some other garages but can anyone let me know vaguely how much they paid?

2 1/2 hrs labour at my local Mini dealer would be £225 + Vat. I know because they charged me £45 + Vat just to swap my wheels front to back while in for it's service
