Review on πŸš— iJDMTOY (2) Union Jack Style Wing Emblem Rings for Mini Cooper R55 R56 R57 R58 R59 Door Lock Knobs, Black/Grey UK Flag Design - Enhance Your Mini's Style! by Colin Watkins

Revainrating 2 out of 5

White glue is showing around the edges

I like that they are metal and the black union jack design. The quality in hand is excellent and the subtle accent they give to the car deserves 5 stars. However, the 3M adhesive used to stick them to the door is white. Why? This white double-sided foam tape is visible around the edges and contrasts starkly with the black interior of the doors. Just a really bad idea, especially since black 3M glue isn't more expensive than white. They're worth it if you're meticulous, but use your own black double-sided adhesive. I might end up taking them off and coming back with black tape. Also check that the adhesive is properly aligned behind the metal tab. Mine was sticking out a little outside the inner circle. Again, this doesn't affect stickiness, but it's ugly. Just be careful and cut with a razor if some tape is sticking out over the edge.

Pros
  • nice touch
Cons
  • negative print
