IND's painted reflectors have been a staple for BMW owners since the E46 and E9X M3 era, and we are finally excited to offer our famous "Reflector Delete" to the F5X Mini Cooper community! Our Mini Cooper reflector inserts are the perfect solution for removing the orange and red reflectors still required on cars by U.S. Department of Transportation regulations. These rear reflector deletes blend seamlessly into the Mini's fender arches, achieving the sleek, unified look that our fortunate European counterparts enjoy as standard.
The Mini Cooper presented several unique challenges. The biggest issue was how to prepare each fender arch for the factory reflectors. The fender arches are not manufactured with uniform openings for reflectors; they are cut out by a press, so the size and shape vary from fender to fender. To address this variation, each insert set comes with adhesive shim strips to secure the reflector delete edges. Also, Mini Cooper arches are made of ABS plastic with a unique color and texture. We went through many trials and errors to achieve the perfect match.
Upgrade the look of your car with the IND F5X Mini Cooper Front Reflector Delete and stand out on the street.

Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At the Shafutoya shopping site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇 Compatibility Confirmation
As our product database is based primarily on North American vehicles (USDM), please confirm whether or not parts can be installed on Japanese vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will investigate for you.)
If you place an order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and vehicle model on the tabs on our homepage, it does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese model vehicles without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Estimates for shipping costs are calculated automatically when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping cost and the actual cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
All products are generally shipped internationally from our U.S. warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping in Japan, international shipping takes about 7 to 14 days, so please allow yourself plenty of time when ordering. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm delivery times. All products are transported via air freight. They are never shipped by sea freight.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection Compliance
All products handled by our company are generally designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with "Japanese vehicle inspection (shaken) standards," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents or similar paperwork for the Japanese vehicle inspection system. Therefore, all parts are sold for "circuit, private property, and off-road use only," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival of your order. Since all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, the packaging box and the product itself may sustain shipping damage. We will only provide returns, refunds, or replacements for products with shipping damage, defective goods, or items different from your order if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Please understand this policy. Furthermore, for products sold through our company, all warranty-related support will be handled "exclusively through us." Please note that we do not provide support through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
