02About this kit
PPF for the MINI Coupe
We have 3 pre-cut PPF (clear bra) kits for the MINI Coupe, covering model years 2012–2015. Low noses and long hoods mean a coupe catches debris at a flatter angle, so chips spread further back across the hood than on a taller car.
A partial front kit protects the bumper, headlights, mirrors and the front portion of that long hood and the fenders, where the heaviest hits land.
Each kit is for a specific range of years and trims, because bumpers, grilles and sensor layouts change between them. Pick your year and trim when you order and the cutouts follow it. Add your VIN and we'll double-check it before cutting.
03Shop vs. DIY
Most of a PPF quote is labor.
A shop has to pattern, cut and install the film on your MINI Coupe. We do the patterning and cutting. What's left is a careful afternoon (or weekend) with a spray bottle and a squeegee.
| Coverage | Typical shop install | Our kit | You save |
|---|---|---|---|
| Partial Front | $600–$1,100 | $299 | $301–$801 |
Shop prices are typical US quotes for installed paint protection film and vary by region, vehicle and film brand.
04How it works
We cut it to your car. You install it.
A PPF shop measures your car, cuts the film, then installs it. We cut it to your vehicle's pattern before it ships, so the only part left is the install, and that's the part you can do yourself.
01
Pick your vehicle
Year, make, model, trim. Bumpers and sensors change between model years, so the pattern is cut to yours, not to a family of cars.
02
We check it, then cut it
Send a photo of the front of your car and a technician checks it against your kit. Then it's plotter-cut from a full roll of film, labeled by panel, rolled in a tube and boxed so nothing creases on the way.
03
Install it in your garage
Spray, float, squeegee. No trimming on the car, no blade near your paint. The install guide walks through every piece in order.
Will this kit fit my MINI Coupe?
We have kits for MINI Coupe model years 2012–2015. Choose your exact year and trim and we cut the matching kit. Perfect-Fit Guarantee: send a photo of the front of your car with your order, and if a piece doesn't fit, we re-cut it free.
How long does it take to install PPF on a Coupe?
Plan on about 2–3 hours for partial front, 45–75 minutes for front bumper, 10–15 minutes for headlights if it's your first time. Work in the shade, on a clean car, and don't rush the bumper.
How much does a Coupe PPF kit cost?
Partial Front $299, Front Bumper $128, Headlights $34.95. A shop typically charges several times that for the same coverage because most of the price is labor.
Is this the same as a Coupe clear bra?
Yes. "Clear bra" is the older name for paint protection film, from the days of black vinyl bras that covered the front end. Both names now mean the same clear urethane film. This kit is 8.5 mil TPU film, cut to the panels of your Coupe.
Does the Coupe kit include cutouts for sensors and emblems?
Yes. Parking sensors, washer nozzles, tow hook covers and badges are cut into the pattern where your year and trim need them. You don't trim anything on the car.
Do all 2012–2015 Coupe trims use the same kit?
No. For 2012–2015 we cut 3 different Coupe kits: Cooper Base; Cooper S; John Cooper Works. Pick your trim when you order and you get the matching one.
Is there a separate kit for the Coupe Cooper Base?
Yes. Coupe Cooper Base, Coupe Cooper S and Coupe John Cooper Works have their own kits, because the front end differs from the other trims. Choose the trim when you order.
What do I need besides the kit?
A spray bottle of slip solution (water and a few drops of baby shampoo), a spray bottle of tack solution (water and isopropyl alcohol), a squeegee, microfiber towels and a clean, shaded space.
What if a piece doesn't fit?
Perfect-Fit Guarantee: send a photo of the front of your car with your order, and if a piece doesn't fit, we re-cut it free. Send us a photo of the piece on the car and we'll take it from there.
How long does the film last?
The film carries a 10-year warranty against yellowing, cracking, bubbling and peeling. Real-world life depends on sun exposure and how the car is washed.
