Door numbers/Decals

Hi
I've recently got a Hyper Blue/white MCS with white bonet stripes and mirrors.
I'm thinking of adding some door numbers and rally style stickers. I've seen a red/white MCS with this done and it looks great, I'm just not sure it will look as good on the blue, especially as most of the stickers i have seen have red backgrounds.
Can anybody help, where are the best places to look for these door numbers/decals/stickers & does any body have any pics of a blue car with these sort of details on.
Thanks for any help

United-Kingdom ha ha !

im wondering if your refering to mine !
ive since changed my graphics from the pics in my gallery for better quality ones, but in theory the red backgrounds could be flipped to white and the writting then in black which i think would suit blue ! or maybe red white and blue, keep your eyes on go mini in a couple of months as its being featured !

Your right

Your right it was yours I saw!

The S looks great, have you had any problems with the law having numbers on the doors?

Think i'm going to have a good play on photo shop, see what ideas I can come up with and what looks good!

Just another idea, mini garages can add door decals to your car like this, i know it's not really rally style, but they do look good, i dunno if you like them?

ill be at mini in the park on sunday on the go mini stand and you could view my mini (which has changed slightly) for yourself ! the law states that rally/racing numbers are ok for road use ,only those whom are racing need to put a line through the numbers ! when you think about it taxis have numbers on the side !
nobody has bothered me about the numbers or the front bonnet plaque but as youve a blue mini id do something special with it !

here are two piccies of one of our minis that we recently added numbers to - you have to go for it!

we did it like that to match in with the style we already had on our red one, but if i had just a blue mini i would get a white circle with black numbers on it possibly
