Rocker Cover Repaint/replacement
 
riteo chaps !

Cost for a new Red Rocker Cover from Honda.... or how difficult is it to get a stock look repainting it as the paint is flaking off?

Had a search but couldnt find much on it im afraid !

Also keen on a Mugen Spark Plug cover, any idea on cost for one?

Two HUNDRED pounds?! Yowzers... Well, I guess it does look good !

You're talking about the whole rocker cover though, not just the plug cover.

I'd be interested in this too, mine is fine at the moment, but no doubt it'll start flaking soon enough.

Looks nice with the Kevlar Steven, forgot about that.
Is it laquered, or do you have a lot of Autosol?

Now im confused, Ive just bought a spare rocker cpver to do just that. Now do I get it sprayed to match the MCB car of polish it up because that one looks wkd

I cant seem to find any spares anywhere... what am I doing wrong?

How much am I looking at for a spare one then? what have you guys paid?

conanius 11-25-2008 01:50 PM

Managed to secure one. Now I just need to work out how I go about repainting it.

Does anyone have a step by step 'you need these parts and do this this then this' to repaint the rocker cover?

Im guessing I need to get the spare sent off and shot blasted somewhere, then respray it myself with some high temp paint? I want the exact same red honda used so it looks stock still... any recommendations greatly recieved

I'm willing to sell mine for the same price that im paying for the new one.. that way we can pass on a 'floating replacement' so people who want to respray/go chrome etc can do so and have a spare rocker cover if people want to do that ? :)
