Colour coding existing trims

dudesterlang · 13th February 2008, 22:40

Can you get the existing trims (front,rear & side trims) colour coded or do you have to buy new? If so who & how much. I don't want to mess with it too much. I know the material is different but can it be matched with the rest of the bodywork?

It costs anywhere between £400 and £600 depending on the local body shop prices.
They remove the trim and spray them to match

some honda dealers colour code too. To get a colour coded civic you could a)buy a CTR or b) get a NHB civic! hehe!

That sounds like a good price.

Although mine are already done I asked at a local bodyshop I use, and he said about the same. I was quite surprised to be honest, I though it would cost more.
