its usual that the dealer will get a 'local' sign guy into do the job - so in their defence they may be doing 4 or 5 MINI's in anyone sitting !!

yes John - laying flat on the tarmac to get the 'ants eye' view of Vipers

It was when Phil got the ladders out for the roof shots that the curtains began to twitch!

Phil, can you show us some more pics of that R56? I'm interested in getting similar stripes for mine. Which kind of stripes are that? Regular vipers? How much €?!

Lots of question.. thanks.

At the end of the day you can do whatever you want or have whatever you want done, it's down to your own personal taste really, it's just that in the case in question (post #1) the stripes just don't look finished off around the fog-light, it's the little attention to detail that makes all the difference and finishing the stripes off properly wouldn't have took that much longer to do anyway .
Mine's the one on the left.
