I had a buddy who owned a sign shop, so the stripes were made for free and I did the install myself. Unfortunately, he's sold the business since then and is no longer a resource for that kind of stuff! If you're in the Atlanta area, check out Atlanta Minis (atlantaminis.com). There's a member of the club who does wonderful work with custom striping, and I'm sure could set you up with some boot stripes...sorry, but I don't know his name. Shouldn't be too hard to find it by asking around on the forums, though. Enjoy your MINI! I've since sold mine, but it was the best car I ever owned...most fun, too! Eric Hi Scott,

Enjoy your MINI! I’ve since sold mine, but it was the best car I ever owned…most fun, too!

The running joke is that I can't go anywhere without being recognized, so I have no anonymity anymore. Sad to say that the MINI is gone now; traded about three weeks ago on a 2008 Mustang.

I live in Marietta but venture out sometimes, and I believe I have seen this car (or one like it) around. I'm hard to spot--your typical gray Toyota. Do I see a COBB county label under there?

They are cool. If you don't mind sharing, I would include them into my collection of outstanding licence plates at www.pl8s.org. I have a photo of a red MINI saying I Am A Beamer Too.
