I have decided the Mini needs a make over and have decided what I want.

Going is the roof chequers and in its place I am going to do the whole car in tiger stripes.

The car is black with a white roof and am going to put black tiger stripes all over it!!!

Now the question is where can I get this done thats not too far away from Aberdeen?

Anyone any ideas?

Cheers
Kevin

Not near you, but Mini Designs in Stirling always do a fantastic job :thumbs up:

I'll second that, it is a bit of a distance, but give Carlo at Mini Designs a shout. Did a great job on mine - I worked out on paper exactly what I wanted and Carlo reproduced it exactly on the car - good price too!

Not sure about the Tiger Stripes tho'. Might end up looking like a bad 80's fashion cushion. BTW, if the body of the car is black and you're putting BLACK stripes over the WHOLE car, how's that work then? I can see it on the roof, but black stripes on a black body? Best of luck anyway.

thanks guys, had a slight rethink, decided am going to make my Mini the Carbon Fibre demo car for the business so lots of CF everywhere, I think that would make it a little more different for now.

Matt stripes on gloss black looks very nice though!
