This kit is ONLY for the gen2 and gen3 MINI models listed below and is 5/8"" wide. Please note the year and model range listed below to confirm you are ordering the correct part for your MINI.
These are NOW AVAILABLE in both MATTE or GLOSSY- see drop down menu for options- image shown is MATTE.
This kit contains enough to do a full MINI beltline.
This is a exterior grade automotive pinstriping material that is supplied as a roll and is ready to be applied. Our local friend Mark came by one day with his (very nice) black Cooper S to show us his blacked out beltline (the chrome strip that runs around the car right where the windows transition into the body panels) that he had just installed. It looked amazing so we decided to offer a similar kit to our customers. This black film covers the stock chrome trim and is available in Glossy or Matte Black. The width is perfect to cover the trim just right leaving your car with a little less bling. Kit includes enough film to do one car with a few inches for testing. Applies just like any masking tape.

R-Fifty WHAT?? Confused about what model MINI you have? We’re here to help. Check this out for more information.
The best way to install this is to pre cut the tape to match the length of each body panel you are working on and leave about 1/2" extra. Start by pulling back about 18" of the backing and adhere the first inch or and put a LITTLE bit of tension on the tape and hold it about 1/4" off the surface while looking down the edge to see how it lines up with the black rubber lip on the edge of the chrome. Twist it just a bit to get the top edge to butt against the black lip and slowly press down on the film towards you. Once it is in place move on to the next span.

This customer purchased the item at our site.
Ordered the Glossy, and it is super glossy. Installation was relatively straight forward. Take your time, align the top or bottom for the full length, then slowly smooth down the line. The bend of the corners was the most difficulty to apply. I used a hair dryer to smooth some of the wrinkles and it looks great at a distance, decent close up. My husband didn't notice the imperfections, but I received several feet extra in my roll, so I may redo two pieces of the beltline.

Recently bought the Glossy finish for my F55 S. If you're the type of person that can lay down a phone screen protector straight, you can do this. I prepped the beltline with isopropyl alcohol, wiped it down, and applied the vinyl. A little heat gun action and it looks GREAT!
Advantages: De-chroming!
Disadvantages: None
