Hey guys,
not posted much in a long while so thought for my returning post I'd share my ingenious driving lamp cover mod.....should help get the message across, if I'm driving slow enough for on coming drivers to spot what it says

Big thanks to Sooperlids for the stickers and I hope you'll agree that this is a pretty cool way of putting them to use!!!!!
Regards,
Matt

Restyle · Aug 6th, 2005, 05:19 PM

Available from any MINI / BMW Dealer (Although they often dont know they exist)
Part Number >> BM63. 12. 0. 144. 065 {-@ £4.69 each}

More Info >> http://www.mini2.com/forum/exterior/47337-spot-light-covers.html

Like the MINI2 logo idea, Wonder how it would look if all written on each cover ??

thats cos they are only shown if you search for them under a US spec MINI on the catalogue

nice design though, looks cool.

I think so.
I took them to the local Tinting / Graphics shop & asked them to do it.
I believe they scanned in the logo dimensions & then machine-cut the letters which were then stuck on.

Captain Caveman · Aug 12th, 2005, 02:30 PM

They look great, I will be ordering a pair today! Just the stickers to get sorted then.

You should get one done the right way round and the other back to front so that drivers in front get the message,like on an ambulance.............but without the siren or flashing lights............although that would get you through the traffic quicker

Ebrian_x2 · Aug 12th, 2005, 04:13 PM
