Maybe it is the way the light catches the cowling at sunrise or the small hit of pride you feel when you idle past the fuel dock. The Pacific Blue Accent Panel Kit 8M0142206 brings that feeling to life. It gives your Mercury outboard a clean, fresh, custom look without complicating your day on the water. These panels feel purposeful—like a subtle upgrade that tells people you care about your engine as much as the journey it takes you on.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eEnhances the appearance of Mercury FourStroke outboards with a factory-painted Pacific Blue finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThin, durable polycarbonate construction designed for long-term outdoor exposure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eIncludes accent panels, adhesive, Mercury wordmark, V8 badge, and M-icon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eFits 4.6L V8 200–300 horsepower FourStroke outboards (serial number 2B529482 and up)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eHorsepower decals available separately\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eEstimated 30-minute installation time per engine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eIncludes a 2-ounce sample of Mercury Marine All-In-One Spotless Shine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eEngine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eDesigned specifically for Mercury 4.6L V8 200–300 horsepower FourStroke outboards\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eIdeal for center consoles, bay boats, offshore fishing boats, and premium performance hulls\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eWorks with engines finished in standard Phantom Black or white color schemes that accept accent panel customization\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eFits engines with serial numbers beginning at 2B529482 and newer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Practical Benefits\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e Accent panels may seem like a simple cosmetic upgrade, but anyone who spends time on the water knows that small details matter.
