Claxon = Chrome plastic control switch housings?

I've had good luck painting plastic and plastic chrome exterior trim pieces on my motorbikes with these SEM products

claxon == horn

pretty sure they are talking about the 3 little grille inserts in the horn cover

I see, thanks.
The products we've recommended will get the job done…….and have plenty left over for the chrome switch covers

I'm awaiting a third-party replacement for those "interesting" switch covers, since I presume that's what I'll be dealing with once I'm in sufficient shape to start contemplating a new ride. (Who am I kidding here? The thought's already there.) Perhaps by the time the '24 models start traipsing out the gate in Pontadera, the higher-ups might have decided on something a bit less Harley-garish…black chrome, perhaps?

They are currently available for the 50s but not yet for the GTS. I'm keeping an eye out for them as well. Why Piaggio put chrome ones on scoots that are otherwise all black trim is a mystery to me.

As for the horn cover inserts they are available on eBay and Aliexpress. Possibly on Amazon as wel.

pretty sure the black ones on amazon etc only fit pre-2023 models. This is the whole point of the post.

The part number for the 2023 is different to pre-2023 (and is also now a set of 3 instead of 3 separate pieces)

part number in different colours
2023 triplet 1B009431000V04 1B009431000K1 1B009431000A15
pre-2023 upper 1B005775000LD 1B005775000K1 1B005775500R7
pre-2023 middle 1B005776000LD 1B005776500R7 1B005776000K1
pre-2023 lower 1B005777000LD 1B005777500R7 1B005777000K1
