Are the white front fender accents painted or are they solid white

Don't worry @rabtech yours will still be the only one with blue fire coming from under the hood

Yeah that's a very good question. If they're actually white plastic that would be a nice mod for people.

Can't imagine Polaris would be dumb enuf to have to paint and stock another color, when they could just purchase them that way, particularly since they are a JIT factory...... Besides, at this point- it is a limited (LE) quantity. However- they have proven that ya can't fix stupid in the past.......

Off their email campaign:
"This limited edition Slingshot SL is loaded with a first-from-the-factory White Lightning muscle stripes—plus premium metallic Blue Fire paint, powder-coated White Lighting accents, and a tinted Ripper Series Wind Deflector" Clearly says accents are painted, but specifically cll out "muscle stripes" (lol) as a "factory first"

Can plastic be power coated? I'm not sure how hot those pieces need to be in powder coat. If the mold was infected with white plastic then the pieces could take a scratch. The blue and white are really nice.

so far the white accent panels aren't listed in the parts breakdown.

gut feeling is going to be painted. Not knowing what the take rate would be they may start off that way.

can't you just sneak over to the new factory and look in the window?

Who's going to volunteer to key the first one out to see if it's painted?

I was at VMS today and spoke with Andy (the owner) and he said he was pretty sure they are painted.

for that big a price increase, it would be pretty lame if they are painted!

.

$500 more than the White LE for painted hood plastics and belt guard (but no black wheels) ...........

......

Well we don't know yet.

There is a Polaris video that shows a walk around of the new model:
https://www.facebook.com/PolarisSlingshot

It appears because of the glare off the stripes that they are painted white. The swing arm, control arms, and springs are painted/powdered white as well.

excerpts from the video:
"dramatically revised front"... ROTFLAMO
"painted white lightning muscle stripes on the rear"

Guess that says it all---White paint
