i am a bout to spend some money on my chilli red cooper, been to dealer for
price on bonnet stripes & chequered roof , £152 plus the fitting............have
seen them in mags for half the price, but not sure of the quality or fit.

like to hear from any one who has bonnet or roof decals done............. how many
parts does roof kit come in. have seen a three piece roof kit for £55...

Aftermarket ones do not leave gaps, as the dealer options do, I imagine quality depends on where you go, have you checked out cooper flags?

No reason a non dealer shop can't do as good a job as a dealer, in fact our local dealership used to just sub out the non factory fits to a lcoal company

I installed both myself, in a jiffy and saved a bundle. Cooper Flags was great!
