    I'm looking to get a Renazco seat for my HP2. I'm not sure about what color combination I want. The bike is stock color right now, but I been thinking about painting it factory works colors.

    The suede only comes in 4 colors; black, grey, navy blue, and brown (tan). I really like (and want) the tan, but I don't think I can make it work with the stock color combo.

    I'm looking for suggestions and pictures. I saw a white HP2 somewhere around here with a tan Renazco seat, but I can't find it anymore.

    I'd keep it simple and go with an all black seat, or maybe black suede and blue vinyl. Keep in mind the seat will get dirty and black doesn't show the dirt the way other colors will. I've seen a black seat with blue sides and it looked very sharp.

    There's at least two tan Renazco seat HP2s. Here's mine:

    +1 I left it up to James and he did a beautiful black seat with blue stitching

    Anything special when it comes to painting the plastics? Bring it to a pro or do it yourself?

    I took the panels into an auto painting shop. Don't have a place where I could try to do it myself.
