MINI2

Hello fellow mini lovers

My mini is FINALLY arriving next week after a 5 month wait!!! YAY!!! Jump Jump Jump. The ship is actually due to arrive tomorrow but it'll take around 3 days before I get to take it home with me. Oh well, what's another 4 days. Anyway, it's gonna be a black roof, black body mini cooper

and I've been contemplating whether or not I should put red stripes on it. I was thinking either viper stripes or regular bonnet stripes in red. I initially wanted to get the stripes done in hot pink but I thought red would go better with the red interior.

So let me know what u guys think! If any of you have got pictures that would be even better

Congratulations! I say go for red viper stripes. I don't have a picture, but Cooper Flags has a red one with black stripes that looks hot!

If in doubt go for magnetics, the woman who did mine can do them in any colour etc.

What about gold stripes? I've never seen it done on a MINI, but black and gold always go well together and black, gold and red (your interior) combinations usually work well elsewhere.

It would be unique, unless anyone knows better....

Hey guys thanks so much for the suggestions, they have been really helpful. I think the magnetic stripes would be the best for me. Not only can i take them off if I dont like them, I can easily change the colours according to my mood. Just a question though, does anyone know anywhere else I can get them apart from ebay?

No sorry, the woman i got them off ebay seems to be the cheapest but if you want to go down the non ebay route i am not sure where you would get them.
