Figured I was post some pics of the body panels and hood, newly wrapped in some heavily discounted vehicle wrap I found on Groupon. Body panels looked nice when I got them but even happier the way it turned out!

I ruined one piece of vehicle wrap, but once I got used to working with the material all other pieces went pretty smooth. Props to the company that builds these body panels out of big bear California they make a nice product!

Those look nice. Good work.
Also looks like a wet okole seat cover -- I don't think they make them anymore.
You need a front bumper.

Thanks! I was just reading some stuff you and rand posted on the vent mod, I wish I was half as mechanically inclined as you both, you both always have some awesome advice!

Right on the seat cover, love those - the fit and look is awesome in my opinion! I saw yours, took your advice and bought two the day after you recommended them. That would be terrible if he stopped making them, the owner there is an oddy and pilot guy that’s why he does them. He’s got a couple nice machines of his own! Even if he stopped building them, I think he could be talked into starting to build them again (he’s passionate about these buggies!)

Do you have a bumper on yours? Did you build you own?

I just got the stock bumpers that Honda makes.
Still like those the best as they don't stick out like a sore thumb and they look like they belong.
But others here have made some nice ones that I do like.

As for the seat covers -- when I go to the link I saved it says no longer available.
I didn't know the owner had these machines.
Is he a member here ??
If you know him send him.

I didn’t realize Honda made a bumper, still can find them? If so where? He’s not a member but I have his personal email, I will pm you in the morning with it. He’s got 2 well put together machines, super nice guy! Like I said I’m sure he would build them if people were interested. He told me if the members all wanted to do a group buy he would also cut us a price break. If I still have pics of his machines I’ll send a few pics over to you as well.

Got the email. Thx. I think I will steer him this way.
Post the pics of his machines when you get a chance.

I see at least 3 pilots there and a bunch of other toys. Must be nice to have lots of play money.
Looks like original tires too. I bet those are in near new or very good condition.
There are still some reflectors on those machines so he didn't roll them.
Wrist restraints faded so they have been out in the sun.

Agreed, I remember seeing other pics and they were in outstanding shape! He’s definitely got another odyssey I also don’t see in that picture. When I was speaking with him he doesn’t get a lot of time to ride anymore, that’s what happens when your focus is banking as much dollars and cents as you can!!! Like I said though, super passionate about these machines so I know he would make the seat covers for members who were interested! Awesome product-absolutely love my seat covers!!!

I agree -- my seat cover is awesome. Very good high quality product.

When I bought my seat cover I actually emailed them some pics of my machine to use in any advertisements if they wanted but they never did. I guess there just isn't enough demand. Not to many oddy owners around. Even on this site we have over 3000 members but only about 100 hard core who have been around awhile, and of those only about 30 who post regularly.
