Talking New car, Bonnet stripes and union jacks!

Hi all...I have now taken delivery of my cooper, so both me and my girlfriend are now new coopered up! And de-new beetled!!! Anyhow can anyone help. My other half wants racing stripes for her red cooper, but didn't want them at the time the car was ordered...anyone know of anywhere in the north west that does this? She also wants a union jack for the roof...

On a seperae note...anyone have any ideas on what would look good on a black roofed yellow cooper? I thought a checker board? anyone have one and piccies of said car?

Thanks DK....am I right in thinking that even dunces like me could fit the roof jobby?
And are these relatively hard wearing? I'd just hate to try the union jack for the other half and have it full of bubbles because we were doofus's!

Err no, I wasn't that brave! I paid my local graphics company to fit them... Plus it was raining and they could do it indoors

Cheers Monsta...car looks great by the way...I'll let the other half know as we thought it'd be far more expensive than that!

I love the red calipers too...great idea...I think that'll be the first job I do to my Y/B cooper...
