Code 3 American Excellence / Neo models?
Just wondering if anyone has any experience obtaining replacement parts for any of the American Excellence or Neo models? I am always thinking of different colors or variations, but this is impossible (?) with no access to replacement scripts because of the way they are attached. I suspect that Chinese production does not allow for extra parts even to the company in question. But it can't hurt to toss up the idea.

David, John Arnold (JAM) refinishes and corrects NEO models
He refinished a '78 Cadillac Seville in "Commodore Blue Metallic" for me and gave it a much more realistic vinyl roof. He has many spare parts but is able to remove even the smallest metal trim pieces without damaging them. His paintwork is excellent.

I no that severa; companies DO allow you to get hold of parts. I wish you luck with it.
