Ünnecessary Ümlaut

I thought this was just a kick-ass poster. But they’re actually auctioning these KISS-covered Countryman MINIs. And you can order custom KISS wraps for your own MINI. Kick-ass!

Now if they only made Gene Simmons Bloody Tongue Car Fresheners to hang on your mirror, we’d be in business. Though I’d settle for a special KISS Kat seat.

THE AUCTION
On May 29th the autographed KISS MINIs go on eBay with proceeds to benefit UNICEF and help children in Japan (and around the world).

THE TOUR
The Rocks The Rivals tour is rollin’ the KISS Countryman MINIs to dozens of dealerships/cities. Here’s a few notables:

May 6 — MINI of Universal City, North Hollywood, CA

May 7–MINI of Manhatten New York, NY

May 21 — MINI of San Francisco, CA

June 6 — MINI of Chicago, IL

June 9 — Desert MINI of Las Vegas, NV

THE WRAPS
If you don’t have the cash to bid on the official, autographed versions you can order custom wraps for your own MINI–every model, color, and year. (Warning, they’re about $800 bones plus about $400 installation.)

See The Starchild, The Demon, The Catman, and The Spaceman. What’s your fav?

Props to MINI USA CEO Jim McDowell for rockin’ KISS makeup and joining the band onstage at the NY International Auto Show. No word on if his laser pointer shot flames or not.
