I don't know of any specific shops, but I reckon that any of the shops which install the clear film protectors have the talent to install graphics. After all, they're simply big decals in both cases.

Some good work here guy's

I had this done a couple of weeks back, really pleased with how it looks.

Very nice! Got any more pics of your ride? Your wheels look pretty sweet as well!

While at the Dragon, I saw a number of MINIs that had 1 stripe on their drivers side that was like a silhouette union jack with a color similar the the bonnet color; so it was very subtle. Does anyone know if there is an online dealer for these?

I bought these for my wife's cooper as a Christmas present... I finally put them on yesterday! What do you think? Its the basic bonnet stripe, but with a shelby type pin around it. Driving lights are next.

When it catches the light it is. And of course at night.
