My 2012 DS is white too, but I don't see much yellowing in 2 1/2 years.

I don't know much about plastic pigments, but I'm pretty sure that white paint holds up pretty well over time. Red paint, on the other hand, will fade faster than just about any other color. Which is a shame since I love red vehicles.

My custom seat project ran nearly $700, and was designed to compliment the faux-fairing painting of Angler fish skin. It works well for my preferences of 35-45 mph speeds in twisty, slow, bumpy, Redwood forest paved/dirt roads and I no longer return from a 2+ hour ride with a sore butt!

Good to know, and I agree. I believe they were talking me out of it because I am attempting to make them compensate me for the recent issues with my bike.

Dangit!! I BEGGED to have my S built with white bodywork (since I had to special-order it anyway) and Zero refused to do it (or so my dealer told me). It looks great! Just as good as I imagined mine would...  :(

I wonder if plastifix is easier than vinyl ... I will likely find out in the future ;)

The light link is now broken. I find a lot of H4 led bulbs on ebay, do you think they all fit?
