All 650's CB650R paint

[AndyNZL]

Hey Team!!

Ok so I live in New Zealand and the CB650R Matte Jeans Blue Metallic is not available here (go figure!).

My dealership says they can get the paint from Honda and paint the tank of a Black 2021 they have in stock.

My questions/concerns are:
- Would you really not be able to make the difference with an original/Factory blue CB?
- What are the processes involved? Sanding?
- Which products are requires? Paint obviously but are there any other products necessary (so knowing, I can check if they know how to do it properly beforehand).

Thanks a lot!

See if you can buy a new tank and have it shipped. My bet is it will be the same or less than a repaint.
