For those that want PAINTED reflectors...

I looked for two weeks now and finally found this site: www.ind-distribution.com.

Ordered a set of front reflectors for my imola red 650i. Went to paint today. Should have them in about 10 days. I'll do a writeup when I get them.

Didn't like the idea of tape or other ideas some had.

Ind posts a lot on this forum, sucks that you couldn't find it through a search. I bought some from them for my 2013 but never got around to installing them.

Thanks Bruce for the lead on the custom Imola painted front reflectors. Been looking for this for a few months. Nice to find someone who will do a custom color. The orange reflector on Imola is terrible. I'll be ordering a set asap.

Imola Red is the color the OP referencing and looking at the Turner site they appear to not do custom painted Imola Red. ind-distribution does and will custom paint Imola red.

Yes you carry them in some colors, but do you have Imola Red as the OP states, available for the F12/F13? ind-distributors will paint match colors not offered by other distributors.

Ahh, missed that part.
Currently working on the custom color too.

You can't seem to get anything in pre-painted in Imola Red in stock from anywhere. If vendors kept a few pieces pre-painted they would have a leg up on the competition.
No Imola red love.. was the same when I had crimson red. Anyway looking forward to seeing them to see if they make a big diff..the reflectors are not so offensive on Imola as they are on other colors.

Looking forward to seeing the Imola pics. Dumpin those awful orange reflectors and matching should make this beautiful design even flow better.

Is there a difference between bumper reflectors for non M sport vs M sport. Each time I look for painted bumper reflectors it states not for M sport and it looks exactly the same as mine(M sport front bumper)

AFAIK, that doesn't apply to F10/F06/F12/F13 non M.
