Give your Esperance 2 the finish that suits your vehicle
A rooftop tent can be practical and still look like it belongs on your vehicle. Our colour-coding service lets you match the ARB Esperance 2 outer shell to your vehicle's paint colour, creating a more coordinated finish than the standard dark-grey shell.
SKU: XCCSPAINTESPV2
A personal finishing touch
If you have put thought into the wheels, bodywork and other accessories, the tent shell is a large visible part of the finished vehicle. Colour coding brings it into the same colour scheme, whether you prefer a discreet match or a deliberate contrast.
The Esperance 2 shell is suitable for painting, and the service is specifically for that model. Your supplied vehicle paint code identifies the colour to use; colour names alone can cover several different paint formulations.
What the service covers
This is painting of the Esperance 2 exterior shell. The tent itself is purchased separately: see the ARB Esperance 2 rooftop tent if you are ordering a new tent with the service. The fabric, mattress and tent accessories remain separate from the shell finish.
Provide the vehicle paint code with the order so we can arrange the intended colour. For an existing tent or a different finish request, speak to us before arranging the work so we can agree exactly what you want painted.
Enjoy the same tent with a finish you chose
Colour coding is about appearance; it does not change the Esperance 2's sleeping space or turn it into a different tent model. You still choose the tent and its mounting arrangement for your vehicle and travel needs.
Look after the painted shell as you would other painted exterior surfaces, following the finish-specific care advice given with the work. Avoid abrasive cleaning and protect the finish from loose straps or equipment rubbing against it.

Frequently asked questions
Is the tent included in this price?
No. This is the shell-painting service. Order the Esperance 2 tent separately if you need both.
What colour information do you need?
Your vehicle paint code identifies the intended colour. Give us the code when ordering, rather than relying only on a colour name.
Does it cover the fabric or annex?
No. The service is for the exterior hard shell of the Esperance 2.
Can it change the size or features of the tent?
No. Colour coding changes the appearance of the shell, while the tent retains its original model and layout.
