Side stripes.......hot or not?

For example the Lohen side stripes, is it only really exceptable to have these on your Mini if you have something from the Company?

Many Thanks

James

we've put many a Mini Challenge decal set onto non Challenge cars (private customers) but I guess if you have manufacturers stuff on your car then its OK - but if not I suppose its the wanabe scenario ?? Although it gives an essence of a sporty, sporting brand

byw lilpee we are very local to you if you are looking at graphics.

A MINI is a very individual car and therefore it's up to you entirely what you put on it

I personally would never advertise a company on my car (ie Lohen etc) but have no qualms in never using the MINI rip off graphics either.

I like to be a bit more individual and Mr Pirate above is the only man to trust IMHO - like this

I think they look good, but I wouldn't get the likes of the Lohen ones unless I had something of theirs done to the car, be it a performance pack or whatever
