Union Jack INSIDE Mirror Cover ... ???

6148 Views 60 Replies 16 Participants Last post by  whokilledkaji
Saw this very cool Union Jack Interior rearview mirror cover in a recent edition of a Japanese MINI magazine.
Cannot find it anywhere in the States and was wondering if anyone might have a clue on how to get one. Really interested in it and would be willing to order it from overseas.

Contacted a local graphic shop and they said it it most likely a plastic bit like the ones available for the outside mirrors.

Oooo! Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I must also find out where to get this from! My BritMINI still needs some extra patriotism and I think I've found it! ;) :D :cool:
lol ... no problem.

i have never seen this mod before and it is very cool me thinks ... veryy unique.
was thinking on doing the outside mirrors but this would be a bit more subtle :D

Done the outside wing mirrors as well....very nice let me assure you! Coz when your driving, people can't really see the roof unless they are higher up than you, but the wing mirrors anyone can see, and to see a union flag on the rear view mirror....now thats just classy! Hence me wanting it!
hehe ... I always say that the MINI in itself is all the attention you need :D
the other bits and pieces you add just take away from it's overall beauty.

kind of like a super hot woman with some gaudy jewelry ... to each his own ... hehe.
i am all for subtelty though :cool: :D :D :D
Nah I love my country to much! Wack aload of Union Flag stuff on it! Well its cheaper than getting an overall Union Flag design like my ideal car....Cooper S Austin Power's MINI...just have to make do with gaudy accessories! :rolleyes: :( :D
I want that rearview mirror cap! We need to figure out where it came form.
bump ... surely someone in this large MINI community know how to get their hands on this ?!?!?
Could you let me know where you get them from and could you kindly ask if they do them/ship them to the UK for me to think about getting a hold of one?

Merci beaucoup ;)
what website was that picture taken from? i'm looking for japanese parts as they always seem to be slightly more extreme than American and European tuning parts.

i used to have a link but i cant find it :(
I Want One Too!!!!

I think this is a great interior mod.
I scanned that picture from the current issue of the NEW MINI FUNBOOK ... a Japanese MINI mag.

The pic was part of a collage of pics of a MINI owner. I am not sure who sells this even in Japan.

There are also some very cool and subtle bonnet stripes on some MINI's in this mag as well.
Page 36?

Hey guys...

I live in Japan and I just happen to have that same Mini FunBook... Page 36 right?

Anyways, I'll see if I can find out where it came from. I'm a member of Club R50 and I think I can reach the owner of this Mini through their forum... I'll get back to you all...
OK... I haven't heard anything yet, but I did some searching on my own...

I'm pretty sure the actual item came from www.janspeed.co.jp

I sent them an email, but it's a holiday and I'll probably have to wait until January 4th to hear back.

I did also find a cool way to make your own custom mirror... This guy made his own Union Jack! Check it out!

Yes .. that is the one on Page 36.

By the way ... I am in the Magazine as well along with newyorkmini.org ... check the first 6 pages of it. They did a story on on our Sunrise Run this past November in Manhattan.

Thanks for your efforts in looking into this for us.
Really? That's pretty cool! Is your picture in it?
cheack out page 10 .. that's our gang :)
my name appears on the top of that list of names on the left of the page.
Oh, yeah... I see you name! That's pretty cool, indeed... It's strange to see it in a Japanese magazine of all places...

Anyways, I sent off some emails to see about that Union Jack... No responses yet. It's still a holiday though. Probably tomorrow...
