    I don't get your point. I only get you know what for my birthday and New Years, but I still married the woman. :mad2:

    Is that a custom paint job, or is it just the way the pics turned out?

    I got a new Union Jack on my cabrio at the Dragon. It was created and installed by Mike of Aesthetic Creations. Of course, I had to modify it to the Hot Orange/Chrome/Black color scheme to match the MINI even though it doesn't show in the pics. Hopefully I'll get some better pics in a few days.

    By the way, did I overlook a Union Jack addicts thread by BlimeyCabrio or has he joined a 12 step program for his (and my) obsession? :crazy:

    I don't know -- But I would bet he is somewhere planning his next Jack.

    Both you guys have great cars --- look forward to seeing more pictures.

    Looks cool Mishka, I assume that was printed??
    No one seems to make a match for us with Hot Orange in vinyl..
