Folks

Has anyone installed a matching set of bonnet stripes on the HATCH? If so:

1. How did the instillation go?

2. It looks to me like the bonnet stripes are long enough to work and I would like an exact match with the front stripes. I have a “S” so my bonnet stripes have the black trim... anyone got the part number for a set of stripes (white with black)?

3. Any suggestions on other sources of stripes? (I have product and prices from Cooper Flags).

I've done them. Used the factory bonnet stripes but would recommend aftermarket instead. Pics are in Cooper section here under Black/white thread (although mine's PW/Bl)

We do the rear stripes, very close to lugnutz photo. But ours are to fit close to the edge. The only drawback is the cooper/mini badge. But what lugnutz has done (cut the stripe) solves the problem.

Or you can just order a straight piece of vinyl and fit more towards the middle, and trim where required.

Lugnutz,

I like your slanted style more than the straight up and down look of many other options. Did you think about having the stripes continue down over the bumper? I'm leaning that way.
