Question Side Stripes

I added stripes to the side of my Red/Black S this past weekend. I used Matte Black vinyl for the stripes, and Chrome vinyl for the COOPER copy and outline of the "S", letting the car's color come through to from the "S". I used to be in the sign business so I used my contacts to produce them to my specs and installed them myself. Check out my Personal Gallery: THUEY and let me know what you think.

As you have a Red MINI I think that yellow and orange flames would look really good.

Or even the black stripe you have but changing into flames towards the rear - so that's black flames, not yellow and orange.

Mmmm - ideas flow in the early morning...


Too many mods to list, PM me if the cat needs killing...

Absolutely superb.

It makes me contemplate doing something like the "MINI 1275GT" side logos, except with "MINI 1598 S"

Sorta like this:
