Default Madjax Alpha body kit

Just installed a Madjax Alpha kit on my 2013 Club Car Precedent and the instructions and YouTube videos made it easy.
Now the problem, I had put some stickers on the cart and even though they were on the cart a couple weeks, when I removed them they came off and so did the paint.
Apparently the dealer said the cart came from China and what did I expect for a paint job.
So I went to NAPA and had it color matched and by the way the red Alpha body paint color is Red VW P2 waiting for it to dry to color sand but what a disappointment to fing it could be damaged so easily and left out in the cold to come up with a solution.
Hope it works and anyone needing to repair the red body can now find the color that matches.

Well I guess I’m leaving the decals on mine. Sucks to hear though.

Madjax starts out with molded bodies in white, and they all get painted to color requested, so they are all white underneath. I was under the impression that Madjax used a solid body with color throughout, but that is not the case.

You sure your talking about the same stickers?

1045harley said he put stickers on his cart. And then a few weeks later he pulled them off and it took the paint off

my dealer put his logo on the side of my cart...I wanted to remove them but if there is a chance of the clear coat coming off I'm just gonna leave them...

The kit is coloured plastic with a clear coat on top for durability claims madjax so its probably the clear coat that came off with the decals the op removed...or it was painted afterwards which is not normal

This was a bran new kit right out of the box and there appears to be a paint and clear coat on the cart.
I tried to clear coat the damaged area and the damage still showed through.
So now trying to color match the paint they used and hope it works.

After more research, the plastic is the same color as the outside, only the clear coat is different. Is this correct?
