I have a few rubs and or scratches on my left mirror, what type of prep work would I need to do to repaint the mirror? I assume I can get matching silver paint through honda dealer.

Steve just order a new one from www.ronayer.com there only $20-$30 bucks. Cheaper than having it color matched at a aint shop and nicer finish. I broke one housing a couple of years ago while trying to mount my radar and picked one up from them. I was shocked at how inexpensive it was.

I replaced both mine through Ron Ayers as they were rock chipped. Definitely the only way to go. I believe I paid $16.00 each. :lol:

Can't beat that Price, I could even afford to screw it up and damage it and buy a new one.
thanks

If you're going to toss it, would you send it to me? I have a need for a left mirror body I can hack up for a possible project.

Oh nooooo! They don't do international overseas.
Anybody knows a similar cheap supplier on this side of the pont? :?:

I'll be happy to re-ship them to you if needed. Cost should be pretty low for something that light, and USPS Global Priority takes less than a week to Europe.

:) Thank you Carlos! I might use your offer when i finally decide to 'revamp' the bike (repair smaller scratches, dubble bubble, seat recushioning ) or maybe i'll just order them and store them until the big day.
Maybe you want to private messagge me with how you want it to be done or should i e-mail you?
BTW, are they Honda OEM, or third party? If so, any negatives?
Thanks again!

I'll post it here for the benefit of other people outside the US that might be reading. Most companies will allow you to order it and ship it to a US address. I just re-label it and send it to you. You can look up the costs at www.usps.gov. I ship packages 3 days a week, and international is no big deal. You can cover the shipping costs via Paypal.
If the company won't do that, just Paypal it to me, I'll order it, and re-ship it. I do this with a variety of things that people can't get in other countries.

Thanks again for the quick response. I'll look what paypal is, never used it, and let you know.
un abrazo!

FYI, Ron Ayers will not ship to a different address than the CC used for the transaction.
Best to Paypal the cash to Carlos, then let him do the ordering/shipping.

thanks northman!
(maybe the not selling to overseas is a limitation imposed by honda? )

Many companies just don't want to deal with the risk, hassles, and costs.
