Just a quickie,
Can you buy white replacement door handles,
side strips on the outside of the car,
and pre-sprayed mirror caps.
if so, where from???
also just out of curiosity, has anyone got any of the above or any other white C2 accessories for sale?
:thumb:
The side strips and door handles can be painted, Simon did so on his Furio and looked quite good. I'm sure he'll post a pic later :)

he just will! :P
as for painting, slide them off (there is a catch hole on them that stops them comming off which you need to unclip), sand them, prime them, color them, lacquer them.
In a nut shell.

The side stripes on the doors, just slide off the car towards the front wings, you may need to get a few replacement clips but these are just a few pence from citroen.
The rear wing one pull off, but this will def. break the clips, again a few pence from citroen.
I found that once I reinstalled them they rattled abit, but a few blobs of clear silicon on all the clips before installing sorted that out.
I luckily bought mine off ebay and they were already painted in white, but if you want to spray yours then simply sand them down a little and then apply a few layers of white paint and then a few layers of laquer.
I painted my mirror caps white as well, I used plain bright white model spray paint from a model shop then added a few layers of car laquer.
Here is a picture of mine.
