No stripes, stripes were a dealer applied option. This is a copy of a very lightly optioned daily driver/weekend racer.

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

Mini Cooper #870 Electric Blue.
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.

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.
