I have a pepper white one, I really like the bonnet stripes on the white but
i'm a bit worried it might look a little odd with the white roof?! I also don't want it to look like i'm trying to make my one look like a cooper.....what do you think?

Johnny225 · Apr 18th, 2004, 09:54 PM

Get them! Or put Viper stripes, those will go on your roof too.

beej · Apr 18th, 2004, 10:25 PM

Racing stripe from Cooperflags and then a Union Jack roof - sorted!

Ian Clark · Apr 18th, 2004, 10:49 PM

Pepper whites are gorgeous.... and even more gorgeous with Black stripes

Smurfn · Apr 18th, 2004, 10:51 PM

They will look great whether you get anything on the roof or not

One of the Italian Job MINIs were pepper white with a white roof and black bonnet stripes and it looked good!

ScottyB · Apr 19th, 2004, 01:19 AM

Yup. Looks good.

Viper stripes would rock too.

That's right, I'd forgotten that. It looks very nice !!

Pepper white looks nekkid without the stripes. They're a must, no matter what colour roof you have.

I always think its personal choice when it comes to stripes - personally I don't like them but know I'm in the minority.

Without a doubt get the stripes, and if you've got a bit of extra cash then go for the Viper srtipes, they look awesome on an all pepper white MINI

littlemoon · Apr 19th, 2004, 10:07 AM

Thank you for all your replies, I am now convinced to go and get them!

SoggyCornFlakes · Apr 19th, 2004, 10:11 AM

make sure you post some pics once they're done

littlemoon · Apr 19th, 2004, 10:13 AM
