Well here is an IDEA of what it would be like...just took it into paint, but I had the striping extended onto the JCW aero kit, the sport stripes just arent complete without it

Trixe looks great but you might want to place your sky diva vanity plate else where, looks like is covering the intercooler which works with your turbo, very important to keep it clear,

Sweet MINI Spdu4ia, Trixie looks great and quite unique!!! Can't argue with that color choice.

Also very interesting location for the Euro-plate, I've never seen it there.

Meet Tristan
I'm absolutely thrilled to introduce Tristan! I brought him home Thursday night in the rain. Took him for a 150 mile romp with the hounds this morning in the Gold Country. What a total blast!!!!
