Hello Everyone

A couple of days I bought my 1st Mini (a 2014 Chili Red Countryman). Already love it. Quick question as I am new to this. I want to put the racing stripe over the hood, top and back of the car. Is there something already posted as to quality places to buy online the stripes? Any help greatly appreciated.

Congrats on your new MINI, and welcome to NAM!

Do you know what kinda stripes you want, and are you going to DIY or pay someone to install? If you're going to hire someone to install/apply the graphics you might look for local vinyl shop as many could do both the design and installation.

If you Google for "MINI Cooper stripes" you'll find various vendors with thumbnail images so you can see what's out there and what grabs your eye. I was considering some A-panel graphics last year and liked the options offered on MINI Motoring Graphics and their design-it-yourself applet/function.

Happy Motoring!

Welcome and congrats on the new Countryman.

Post up some pics when you can.

Are you looking for factory stripes ?






Dependent on models and stripes they come in certain colors.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies. I went into the Mini Motoring Graphics site but I don't see countryman as one of the car options. I think I will go with the factory stripes and do black center stripes on hood, back and side (roof is black). The diagram helped, thank you.
