I had this roof graphic custom made by CooperFlags recently....

What do you think?

I'm a little dissapointed, the effect didn't quite work out as planned. Not sure wether it should stay or go....

By the way..... a lot of reflection from the sky in this photo...

i quite like it. i have a custom decal myself and its another step toward individuality

plus that one adds a little badness to the car, in a good way

AJH3 · Dec 27th, 2003, 06:32 PM

I think it looks good, very different

I'd say keep it mate

Afraid I have voted for the second option

The design is good but it would have absolutely brilliant if it was screen printed the same as your avator, although I suspect that would have been a bit expensive

The reason for voting this way was not for you to bin it, but the first part of your option
Good design poorly executed.

Yeah, that was the original design, but CoopeFlags just couldn't do it (so they said). That said, I didn't want it coloured anyway, as Jolly Rogers really should be black and white. What upsets me most about it is the amount of reflection you get off the black, and also the 'refracted' light that you get from the perforations.... Also, as you can see, they didn't trim it right. They didn't allow for the small gap between the two glass panels.

I agree with RVW. Keep it, I think it would have looked better had it solid black to match the roof and not made to fit with the sunroof. Got to go with option #2. I am looking at getting a custom flag done. Still waiting for more feedback.....

I understand what you say about reflected light stopping the black looking as black as the car, but I think others will be less critical as you are of your own car. Minis are about individual expression and not following the crowd, therefore by choosing what must be a unique design you know you're a leader not a follower.
