So I recently purchased a set of front reflector replacements painted BSM to match the paint. I'm getting ready to install them and I just read that the reflectors are a required safety measure and you're likely to fail a visual inspection if they're missing.

I don't doubt they are a required safety piece, my question is has anyone actually failed an inspection for not having them? Seems unlikely the average Joe at the testing facility would even know they were supposed to be there. Thoughts?

The M style bumper doesn't have those reflectors and there is not a mass recall yet, I am sure you are fine

Thanks, I thought that looking through pictures, but didn't know for sure.

the m style bumper for the US does have them. Ive had to replace mine with color matched reflectors. So far no issue with inspections. Ive even coded my turn signals off as parking lights at night as well.

Did the install today, pretty straight forward. Now I think I'm leaning towards the black gloss gills.

Gloss black will look great!
