why are there 2 different types of white bonnet stripe - with or without a black edging stripe? My dealer fitted ones with a black edge to my red cooper but they had 2 on the forecourt without the black edges.

I like the ones ive got - gives them definition

totally agree

i had after market ones done - light silver on dark silver car - and after we put them on realized that a side stripe was needed to stop it looking kind of raw.

The ones with black edging are meant for the Cooper 'S', and the plain ones are for the other models.

I have a cooper...but i got the black edged ones.
