07 mini's
 

i am not a fan of the orange turn signals in the headlights, and i am looking around the forum, and i see that some of mini's in europe, dont have the orange turn signals. was wondering if this was how they're made in euro, or if it's modded....

It's an option you can get with your car. If you go in the configurator, under the first category (where you chose color), there is a "Details" button. If you click that, it will bring up exterior options including clear turn signals.

I don't know that it's something that can be retrofitted without buying [expensive] new light assemblies.

i'm waiting for a retrofit option... otherwise changing the tail lights and head lights are almost 2k!
