    From the beginning, plans were to go original on the Countryman. This included a roof painted purple with euro stripes. This is easy to say.... but when it comes time to do it, OMG, its a big deal!! Lets start with the plans for the stripes....

    And finally, after a bazillion different shades of purple, a House of Kolor Kandy Violette is the final decision.

    more to come. the clear has to dry for the weekend. please understand, these were taken with a mobile phone, the color is fascinating, in direct sunlight, it turns into a lighter rich royal purple. indirect light its almost black, with the lines of the car, its a totally different color. cant wait for sunlight pics. cant wait for the stripes!! i'll keep everyone posted on the progress.
