I like the no stripes look. Very clean and simple. Probably a little more aerodynamic, too.

That is exactly the color I’m wanting, though with the stripes. Does it matter what year of Mini? I looked at a 2019 Mini Cooper with electric blue today and it looked lighter than yours.

Looks great! Question about your doors - The seem to have a different shape than most. Can you send a pic of the door opening in the body?

Hoping to have Mike's paint my 33(hope to order kit this spring) . They gave me a ballpark estimate that is right in my budget and they do beautiful work as evident in your photo! Thanks for sharing Chuckster.
