RH Side Panel Broken

[thegreatpan]

Don't know how, but my RH side panel has broken  , is repairing these a thing, if so who does this?

 If a repair is not possible, I can see I can get a pattern part from DS , who would members  recommend for painting and is there a colour code for the yellow. Many thanks. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

They don't repair very well at all, especially a huge crack like that. Buy a pattern one from LPM panels, they supply Silver with his but cheaper if you go direct.

Thanks Julie,  any idea on painters/paint code?

I think any painter should be able to sort that out for you. As far as paint codes are concerned, I haven't got a clue. I know it is Parakeet Yellow and having had a quick look on tinternet, Y31 / QE comes up a lot. You could always contact RS paints, they would know. If it is Y31 / QE, it is readily available in a spray can. If it were me with such a basic solid colour I would paint it myself. If you need the panel decals, Piki, (Redice) on the forum will sort you out with one.

Edit.....just found this from RS paints which confirms the colour code. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Honda-Parakeet-Yellow-400ml-aerosol/dp/B00MMDTGH6

Thanks Julie, part order from LPM, I shall order the paint and decal

Might be cheaper to get the paint at Halfords, they list the 400/4 parakeet yellow in their book of mixing codes, they can mix it in a rattle can.
