It's getting kind of nasty out here, right now. 4" is what they are predicting, but who knows.

Steven,

That wing looks really great up, but to me........I like it just as well down.

I'm having the Invisishield front bra put on next week, but only on the bumper, headlights, mirrors and the door edges. No hood. I think that the stripe covers almost as much as the Invisishield does on the hood, without the line. I had the complete system applied on the JCW, and really harted the hood line edge, and really appreciated the door edge part. That saved several chips by itself. The guy at our Mini of Des Moines is Really, Really good.

Steven ,

Like the Union Jack scuttles ... Was going with it, but MAs sort of talked me out of it... Might still go with them at some point..

I think they look great and with just the side scuttles like bluetoy its a light touch of UJ.

My MA actually liked the gray non- colored Union Jack on the pepper white/ black highlights... I like the color version ... Sort of breaks it up... Nice visually... At least to me ...

I really like the carbon ones. It looks good if you are going for the blacked out look.

There is the JCW Side Scuttles for something with a little less color.

Goes well with the black line turn signal lights.
