Could’ve been better, could’ve been worse. I put a pair of sport stripes on the MINI along with a Union Black Jack flag for the panoramic roof. I definitely could have done a better job with the stripes but Im not even sure if I like them on the car and they were like $12. The Black Jack looks pretty good in my opinion but I know you guys will tell me if not!

Did you know there’s a tire in your backseat?

I really like it, its cool to look up through since all the black is actually just the glass

Haha I’ve seen it once or twice. The S model didn’t come with a spare, only runflats. I ditched the runflats ASAP but thought it would be prudent to carry a spare around so I put it in the only place it would fit.

How is the light coming through the sunroof affected by the black jack?

I think you need to ditch the rear seat an make a proper tie down for it.

I’ve thought about it but I do use the rear seat fairly often for people.

I feel bad for your friends who have to ride back there.

It looks really cool, all the black is actually glass so the whole sunroof isn’t actually covered.

Its usually either my girlfriend or one of her friends, they seem to manage, haha.

Are the white and grey solid or are they dotted?

Trunk Impaired 318 > TheTurbochargedSquirrel

They’re solid, I’m pretty sure the ones that cover the whole sunroof are dotted.

That’s a bit diassapointing to me. I like the look but I would like minimal change to the light coming through the roof.

I’m looking forward to having it on, that roof makes the car like a greenhouse and it gets stupid hot. Plus I drive with the sunroof open pretty much all the time.

I also drive with the roof and windows open all the time because my R50 makes wonderful grumbly noises. That and the AC is broken. But I don’t really notice any greenhouse heat. But I am coming from a dark green Outback to a silver Mini which is nowhere near as bad.
