Yah certainly....copy all you want, it certainly looks good

I'm not sure they are in-pros....thats how they are listed on the site. I did a search for in-pros website, and they carry 'fk' taillights for the mini that look nothing like those.....so WHO makes them is a little confusing. I dont know.

EDIT nevermind...they are inpro...found here: http://www.edworthys.co.uk/prodlist....=Tail%20Lights

I would just buy the BMW ones on ebay and do them myself, i was going to do them on my 5 series.

Are those from Japan, and would like the real LED tailights not just the Autozone Upgrade

MossMINI?

Any Help?

Sorry to steer this off rims, i am looking for stock white Bullets if anyone has them?

When I was a kid (back in 1956) we used to put a tint in some paint the equivelant to clear coat and paint chrome wheels different colors. A light tint of green, blue, red, or yellow and they looked pretty good.
