| Hello. Have anybody changed the colour on your Wing ? May buy another one, but its blue and I want to change that to silwer. Any problems doing that ? Or is it possible to buy all new plastic ?

| Randybuck's SW, the current forum photo, has been repainted --that's not an original Honda red.

| If I get really tired of black (which I don't really like much), a "wrap" might be the answer. Can get as creative as you want, and easily return the SW to stock, if needed. |

| You can change to what ever color you want. Its all about time and money. All the plastic should be removed. I would send the Corvettes from our dealership to a particular body shop and they used a paint that actually came from up your way.I jokingly would say they used Dutch Boy.You want to find a paint shop that knows how to paint plastic or fiberglass.

Bob If you were not on the other side of the globe, I would swap my silver for your blue panels As it is I will probably repaint in Honda Red. I have found a paintshop which will do it for a reasonable price, if I take all the panels off myself. That is not such a big job and it will give me the opportunity to repair broken tabs and tighten up all nuts and bolts on the inside. As someone has just recently pointed out; buying all new panels would not be an economical solution. |
