That is one lazy job - I bet you could have done better yourself.
Shouldn't the stripes at the front carry on down the bumper too?

Thanks everyone been on to the dealer are coming to collect the car and do the job they should of done in the first place in a couple as weeks as they are too busy with the 08 plates to do it sooner . Yes the stripes should go all the way down on the front as well it seems that the reason they didn't do this is because they used that bit of the strip to do the rubbish bit at the back!! cutting corners i guess. I mean i wanted it to look perfect when i picked it up the first time thats why i payed them to do it. maybe third time lucky!!! keep ya posted.

its usual that the dealer will get a 'local' sign guy into do the job - so in their defence they may be doing 4 or 5 MINI's in anyone sitting !!

yes John - laying flat on the tarmac to get the 'ants eye' view of Vipers

It was when Phil got the ladders out for the roof shots that the curtains began to twitch!

Phil, can you show us some more pics of that R56? I'm interested in getting similar stripes for mine. Which kind of stripes are that? Regular vipers? How much €?!

Lots of question.. thanks.
