Authentic club car precedent gloss metallic body set?

[MadAktion]

So i recently purchased a “synergy green” club car body. I’m told it is an authentic Club Car part. I love everything about it, but I identified a ghost image of a Club Car logo on the hood while waxing (see arrows on picture attached). It doesn’t change the fact that I love it, but it’s got me questioning whether it’s an authentic club car synergy green body and whether it will last the test of time. Can anyone attest to whether this ghost image exists on other authentic club car bodies with the gloss metallic body sets? Do the interior sticker labels appear authentic? Also when you purchase it, should it come with the Club Car logo sticker on the hood? Or without?

Thanks for helping with my sanity all!

Is underside of body the same color. CC doesn't paint them, they are ABS plastic molded (or other plastic method). If different color, probably painted.

The photos with the stickers show the underside ...you think painted then? I guess i could scratch the underside and see what turns up

Ill scrath the underside tonight and see what happens - thx!

Underside photos...it appears to be black underneath.

Yep, looks like it’s definitely been painted, therefore not genuine. Where did you get the body from?

i love the color , at first look I thought it was real deal from CC

I guess i’ll email Club Car directly for confirmation. No one has (or sells) an authentic club car gloss metallic body set as pictured that can confirm for sure?

It’s a beautiful color. I received numerous compliments today. If painted, it’s flawless. But I was told numerous times by the seller that it was authentic, and the stickers lead you to believe that it’s authentication well.

The seller was one of those cart refurbish stores you see on any street corner. Frustrating. I may just ask for a few dollars back if I can confirm it’s a knockoff. I’m mostly concerned that if painted, it won’t hold up years down the road.

Interesting development...Club Car’s marketing materials claim the bodies are “painted.” Now I don't know what to think.

well if its CC paint at least it was done right. only time will tell how it holds up, just dont press on it to hard . any warranty given ?
