I'm thinking of buying a set of Shelby viper stripes

by Insigniaworks (cant post the link as the forum won't allow for some reason)

but i'm not confident to fit them as it looks pretty tricky going over the Cooper S bonnet scoop and the lip under the boot.

Can anyone suggest somebody around the West London area who could fit them on for me?

minisoopercooper · Mar 25th, 2008, 09:49 PM

I would recommend you buy and have them fitted by MINIpirate.

Watching Phil install mine recently I can appreciate what a tough job it is - and you wont find anyone better or with a higher standard and quality.

Phil Craddock · Mar 25th, 2008, 10:11 PM

yep we can help if need be

Also noticed that insignia state that they use the same quality vinyl as BMW - oh dear !!!

We use 10 year exterior not 3 as BMW do. Just thought I'd mention it.

Thanks all and Phil certainly gets good write ups on here. Shame for me that he's based up in the Midlands.

Any recommends around London/S.E. area?

I'm in Epsom & going up to see Phil in April for him to fit a roof decal, taking the long way & have some fun on the a roads

.

No recommendations but I'm sure you'll be able to find someone on Google

Staines just off the M25 - near Heathrow.

Phil Craddock · Mar 29th, 2008, 02:59 PM

about 2 hours from us. If you travelled to me would be better as I can control the environment for fitting rather than out in the elements??
