Should I put this trendy sticker on my car or not? Mini Cooper related...

[ep pilot]

Well it's funny, owning an Ep has made me more selectively conscious of other compact hatches on the road, compacts in particular like the SVT Focus, ZX3 Focus, Mini Cooper S and it's normally aspirated akin. Anyhow the Coopers that I

when the cooper S first came out - i was very interested - even had money down on one, but changed my mind. but the Mini dealers were giving out the round USA stickers - similar to the GB one ur describing. my dad kept some and he has one on his rear window glass of his S2000, and i have one on my hatch glass. its in the top left of the hatchglass - this is the only picture i have, sorry its kinda shyty and u can barely see it. i think it looks really cool with the sticker though. peace

ADMstunna;

Your wheels do look great. One question though, why is there such a big gap between your door and quarter-panel? Or did you put a door guard or something???

Regardless, car looks great, love the color, and the the wheels. Not a huge fan of the amber corner lens, but it does look good on that color of car.

[ADMstunna]

thanks for the nice comments yall, i really like the wheels as well - fits the car really well - i got a door gaurd thing on the doors. i never thought to take it off cuz im used to it now, i dont even notice it no more.

ok wait a minute here. I've heard about VW owners grabbing our antenna's, but never heard of an SI owner grabbing theirs. What's up with your antenna man? please tell me it's some kind of vengance thing against a VW guy that ganked yours!

personally i think it looks cool
and very few people ask me if i am british LOL

[SBC31]

To get back on topic, I'm not a fan of the country decals. They are too big.

Now to get off topic, so what's the scoop on your EP having the wrong antenna??? Did your dealer do this? Did some VW owner swap it on you???

[jo3y]

I did the same antenna mod, mine looks like a VW too. First i custom made one but now i am rollin with a store bought universal antenna that looks like an IS300 antenna. I still have the stocker if anyone is interested

[Cali_JDM_Girlie]

I agree with the Canadain guy......Not a huge fan of the country sticker thing....the British licence plate thing is cool but it would be cooler if it was from Japan......as for the Mini Cooper in general....I think that it is cute car but I could never take anyone who drove it seriously...I laugh everytime a see one cause i think of Austin Powers...and the British flag on top makes it even more of a kind of joke...i don't know..just my opinion:D

I have to say that those country decals are pretty lame. On the east coast, you see lots of SUV's sporting them on their bumpers representing places in the US and Canada that they've been to on vacation. I've seens ones for states like VA, and places like OBX (which stands for the Ourter Banks) and NKT (Nantucket). I would never put one of those stickers on my car, because it has a real "soccer mom" conotation in this part of the country. If I had one on my ep, people would think I was a old fart trying to be cool.

The Union Jack emblem is pretty cool IMO.

BTW, Cooper/Mini/Rover is an English car company, owned by a German car company, that builds their cars in Brazil.

[ADMstunna]

with the whole USA pride deal going on, well it has subsided, but thats y i have the USA sticker on my car. its better than having a sticker of an american flag....

can somebody post up a good close up pic of how the antennae is supposed to look? thanks. ill take another pic of mine and post it up so we can see whats up with my antennae. peace

[carpsir]
