He will respray just the lowers if I like, if we can figure out what happened and get the right colour. Ya they are way out I nearly cried when I put them up against the bike.

right walk into halfauds hand ask to write down the mixture settings for yc2 from there paint match system, yes they are robbing gits but also genrally helpful and it takes them 3 seconds to do, newly armed with this go to you painter and say "here is the correct mixing ratio and it has to be done on a sonic silver base coat
thanks i'll be back in a few days to compare and hopefully we will be right".

Ok guys I have had a another chat with my painter. He knows I'm a picky fecker, so he said I will not be happy with the finish of painting just the lowers. So we have come to an agreement to respray the lot! How do ye feel about blue pearl? Something like the link? http://www.specialistpaints.com/imag...Blue_Pearl.jpg
