No one has said anything negative about mine, but then that might be my charming demeanour

It's not a tattoo, dude. Here's an idea, set the photoshop pic as your desktop so that every day for a week when you turn the pc on it's there. If after a week you aren't sure, don't stick it to your car.

Once it's in place and you run a bead of silicone around the edge it looks all one piece unless you stick your nose up against it.

Here's a closer pic of the edge, I've since added another bead of silicone to give a uniform finish giving no break between seal and louvre.

Cant you photoshop this in GLOSS black?
would be better with a bit of contrast ie matt black body- glossy black louvre

and i dont want it to be one of those 'thats a lush mini, but its ruined by that thing on the back'

That's what I'm thinking to be honest dude

But then it's your car, if you think it looks good then go for it, anyway, who cares if people think it ruins it. I thought if any mini would suit a louvre it'd be yours, just personally I don't like it seeing it on

yea thats kind of what i think, but there are gaps around the louvre when you fit them and im not convinced that it looks right :S
im so lost, i need to see one in the flesh fitted

I'm in Basildon, Essex.

If you're about this way you can come and inspect all you like, if the car permits I'll even take you for a buzz in it

would say go for it just remove the stickers on the window. when you come to doing it

[Skortchio]

If 'everyone' is in Essex, evidently you're in the wrong place

As tomb says, lose the stickers first though.

[Chriss]

I'd personally just try it. You can always remove it at a later date
