Stripes are 3mm wide each. Space is 2mm. That is what was applied to 1990 RSPs. However the 1989 anniversary 998 Cooper conversions had wider spaced stripes and a special roundel. I am curious about what you mean by "custom badging". I don't think the 998 conversion kits came with decals except a single laurel roundel.
Thanks for this minidizzy. I know of the 1989 998 conversion stripes...one has been featured in the March edition of MiniWorld of recent too.
All I mean by custom badging is what the Rover garage decided to do to the car before it went on sale.
Rover Swindon fitted the JCC, along with the JC additions of steering wheel, centre wheel caps (as it was the 1990 car it came with alloys as std), grille, bumpers with overriders, driving lights, Cooper badge on the boot and three laurels (the green ones with silver backgroubd). They fitted one laurel to the rh side of the rear number plate and the other two in the normal position on the rear quarters. It's just the pinstripes that they put on additionally. As the car was a Flame Red all of the decals for that were removed and they put one white pinstripe and one green pinstripe running the length of the car with with the normal(as you have confirmed) 2mm spacing.
I've always wanted to get the car back to as it was when it was sold and after making contact with the original owner they very kindly sent me photos of the car that they took the day they collected the car back in Nov 1990!! So I have a great reference!!
Tha KS again with your help on this 😊😊😊
