Interested about stripes for my MINI, do you know of a good company ?

Hi fellow MINI2ers,


I've recently been thinking about some kind of MINI body art (if thats even a term) but I'm not sure of any good aftermarket companies. I wouldn't mind getting some stripes that run from the front of the car to the back or something different like that. Does anyone have some good links to sites where I could get some ideas and prices ? Any help is much appreciated.

look in the yellow pages or www.yell.com for signwriters and ask about there previous work. u'll probably find that 1 or more have actually done graphics for local dealers.

thats what i did, booked in next wed but still not sure what to get. think ill end up with vipers.

MINI2 sponsor (so that's a bonus) and I've had some stuff from them in the UK too, very good.

Exchange rate helps at the moment too.

Thanks for the replys. Do www.cooperflags.com have a branch in the uk ? What is putting me off the idea of stripes now is that I'm reading stories of them leaving the bodywork paint discoloured compared to the rest of the car when they are taken off. Does anyone have any experiences of this ?

I got some chequered stripes from idlegear.co.uk. They were £20 plus £3 postage. You have to fit them yourself but this took me and the missus about an hour on a Saturday afternoon.

Here's a pic:
