Hi there John.....
Been a while!!!
From the pic im looking at on my screen, this is almost the same colour that we painted the last motorhome built......are you saying that you got this as a custom paint from the factory? That's a first.
Kind regards
John

Hi John,Yes it is a factory colour Paint Code 517, the link I have included are the available colours if you want to factory order and wait 4 months.

Hey John has the chassis on the new Global Warrior been lengthened? To get a reasonable body on the new truck I am getting a 600 mm wheel base extension.

Wow.......There is even a Sahara Beige for Alan.........still beige .....haha.
Was there a charge? Is the front bumper colour matched??? I can't quite tell in the pic? Is the interior ( like under the dash and around the door cards) painted the colour too?
Yeah, the Crewcab Global Warrior went to 4000mm WB but when we do another we'll go 4250mm.....the NPS has great clearance under the transfer so you can still retain a good bit of rampover....obviously turning circle is worse but they drive really nice ...... Everyone that drove that stretched crew made the same comment. It had parabolic's but the longer WB made definitely made it even better.

Hi John
When you said "I am getting a 600 mm extension" I presume you meant that you aren't doing it yourself..... If you're organizing the ext and not your dealer make sure it goes back to dealer anyway so that they check it ...... Obviously it will be getting a two piece tailshaft and an extension on the exhaust so best if Isuzu ok the driveshaft angles and exhaust cause back pressure changes can effect the DPD burn ........ It's pretty hard to get it wrong though especially if your guys have done a few Nseries WB extensions already.
If your dealer has organised it all you don't have to worry about a thing.
Kind regards
John.

Hi John,
The dealer is organizing it,the company doing it do the extensions regularly on the NPS Crew Cab's (they have just finished doing 12 for some company),they are the one's that said the 600mm extension is the better way to go about it,as they then use all Isuzu parts e.g. tail shaft,and it doesn't effect the original Warranty.

Yes it is a complete colour change inside and out,the interior grey trim goes well with the light grey colour.
the bumpers and grill are also colour matched.
I think the charge was about $500.00.
