Bumble Bee anyone?

Bumble Bee anyone?

I have been thinking of changing our door panels on our little Bee from Yellow to Black I think it will look like a Large Yellow Jacket.
Does anyone know if it is easy or difficult to change the panels out? I don’t mind doing the work changing them back and fourth at our whim, which could be monthly for all I know.
Yes, yes I do know that the dealer can do it. However if I know it is a simple task then I can change them out myself.
So my question to everyone, Has anyone changed his or her own panels on your Smart? If you have, was it a simple to do or was it a nightmare?

What a great website, That has to be the best "How To" site that I have seen (for any car) Thank you for the link, I saved it and have a feeling I will be using it often.

You'll see the site owner, Evilution, on here with some excellent responses to technical questions. Another great site is www.fq101.co.uk

It would be cool if someone could develop an applet that allowed the user to test panel color changes one panel at a time instead of the whole car like the smart USA website does. Anyone seen this or maybe could do this?
