That's a good idea. I do have the one you are referencing. I guess i have never heard of refinishing something like that, i will have to do some checking around? What kind of places would do that? Body Shop? I do like the look, just not in the condition it is in. Replies to this message: dandrews1 (Dec 02, 2008 7:46 pm)

Replying to: Lightningmike (Dec 02, 2008 6:26 pm) A body shop would be the right place to start. Depending on the condition, it may only need a repaint... if it's banged up, it may need a recoat - or anything in between... I have a NAS D90, and the rollbar was rusty right above the windshield... luckily, it's a multiple-piece rollbar, so I unbolted it, took it up to a local trusty body shop I've been dealing with for years, and had them grind it down and build up the paint on just that section... you would never know it has been repaired. If it's in good shape physically, you may be able to do it yourself, by cleaning it with some degreaser, giving it a good plastic primer spray and then spraying it yourself... It all depends on if the plasticized coating is intact or not..?
