Hello from Mark in Dallas...AKA PoloJankins

The wife and I recently purchased a Black Mini Countryman and have really enjoyed the experience thus far. Wifey is the primary driver, but I get to enjoy it on the weekends. I've been active on the Countryman Sub-Forum for about a month now, but never formally said hello. This is a great community and I hope to stay an active member for a long time.

Here's our Countryman, "The Big 37"...

Thanks for the props on the graphics. No, they are not my original design. They are the stock Mini Graphics. They offer a widely spread apart Bonnet/Boot Stripe and a closer together Sport Stripe. Ours are the sport stripes which have the trident design in the center which goes over the bump in the hood. Here's a photo of the rear:

Very nice. Don't be so quick to disclaim originality on the graphics! I can't do dark colors ( 1/2 mile gravel driveway) but yous is incredible looking.

Thanks for the welcome guys...and gals. Yeah, those side stripes can be ordered through the Mini Parts department. They also have roof stripes available which are similar to the boot sport stripes.
