Cool Stripes, Graphics etc...

Ive noticed that there seems to be abit of discussion upon graphics for our vehicles. It seems that the dealerships seem to excel in the sales area, but when it comes down to our stripes, flags etc it seems a case of slap it on! Ive seen scratches and bubbles and even saw a tear on one car (Not from my local dealer cos they have sorted it!). I decided to do my own stripes after seeing the design on an original mini because the official ones seem too small (Or am i wrong?). If anyone wants any help regarding the graphics i am willin to help out, or i can do a 'special design job' (For a price! Im pretty reasonable too! ) for anyone to taylor their mini to their own tastes (Only mini owners pls!). Also anyone needin abit of photoshop artwork gimmi a shout, after all we are all now a lil family!

Cool, a couple of questions about the spoiler.. Does it come painted and was it easy to fit - does it come with all the fixings required??

When you order the spoiler the dealer will make a note of the colour of your car, or in the coopers case the colour of the roof, i suppose u could get it coloured to ur own taste tho. The spoiler comes with no instructions or fittings. My dealer said they never done one b4 and said they will use something like mas-stik, but i know a place that does this sorta thing everyday so they fitted it. Its easy enough tho because of the spoiler fits itself around the high brake light and the edging of the boot. Heres a closer piccy (Sorry it was p-ing it down with rain at the time!!)

You spoiler is from the Aerodynamic pack, it isn't a Cooper S one. See the comparison pictures here: http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthrea...&threadid=5781

None the less, it does look good - I think I might go for the same one as I don't want people to think I am trying to copy an S

This is the only picture of a One I have seen with it but sadly it has the 17" S spokes on so it's probably not much use.
