I have the sides as well. I got them from mightystripes and they were angled enough so that they didn't have to overlap onto the door

2 0 % all around and a 10% strip on the front. In that pic it almost looks like 30%, but most the time/angles + sun looks really dark, like this:

Goodluck on the order, and good choice of color

hey on the previous page, user "rlnewby" attached a photo of his/her green metallic MINI. There is a photo showing the hood of the car, Look closely at the hood emblem, -it's not your typical hood emblem (I don't think anyone noticed). Curious what that emblem is? what it means? where'd you get it?

Thanks. Good choice on the center stack decal . I really think it helps out the interior alot, as without it the center stack looks like a blob to me.

Maybe your daughter can come over and "accidentally" drop my aging digicam so WE can get a new one? Ours just won't die and there are far more faster, higher resolution, less expensive units out there now. After the camera, she can go to town on our 32" honkin huge TV.

Great pic, it looks like a professional took it congratulations!

I'll send her on over but first make sure you load up on your home owners insurance. That was my mistake.

I got it from Vinyl Styles (a vendor here). But he has stoped making them from what I have heard. The Number on it is my racing number and it matches my 6 ball shift **** .

Looks great, but how much did that cost you? I can't see paying a few hundred bucks for a shift ****...
