Hi Guys,

I want a custom decal for my MC. What I really want is a little badge like the Checkmates and the Park Lanes have... instead I want it to say MINI Cooper, in black and silver/chrome.

Does anyone know of a company that do decals like this, or could make one?

Thanks!

Jay

Have you tried Mini Pirate www.minipirate.com ? I think they'll do custom stuff.

Hmmm... I thought they only specialised in stickers...

I think he's on about the raised badges on the side of the car, right baskers?

These are essentially stickers mounted on the back of a piece of clear rubber material then stuck to the car. Can't say I've ever seen anyone custom make these but anything is possible.

yep id agree with above...... give phil a go at pirate-he printed me a steering wheel centre in the colours i wanted-looks really good.... im sure a designed sticker would look just as good.... and very unique!!??.....

and it can be easily replaced if u fancy a change-without ruinin ya beautiful mini body!

Guys,

Spoke with Phil at MINIPIRATE, top bloke too.

He has looked into doing this before - however making 'one-offs' is an expensive route. What would be a good idea is if there are any other M2ers who are keen on a little mod like this, then we can place a bulk order, making it a little more possible!

Root Ginger - correct!

Anyone interested?

Jay

Cheers Jay, good to chat earlier to.

I'm onto it, so as soon as I have some further info I let ya all know the score.

It is a fiddly process, which is why one-offs are expensive - but doable all the same.

If we can a few peeps interested as Jay says, then I can print up various designs and have them all 'domed' as a job lot.

Phil.
