Default seat cowl options for a black k3?

I am looking at a couple of options for a solo seat cowl for my k3, idea number 1 is to buy a second hand one and have it painted to match the bike, or . . . order a brand new cowl and infills from a dealership. But can anyone who may have gone down either route help me with weighing up the cost of either option?

Thanks
Craig

I have a black k5 with a seat cowl which i dont use, tried to google a picture there but cant find one but i can take a pic when im from work, would consider selling it if you wanted it. It doesnt have infills so you would need to pic them up seperatly

That would be great if you dont mind, im not that fussed about the infills to be honest as I kinda like the look of the grab rail. Is it in decent condition and roughly how much would you be looking for to part with it? Feel free to pm me if you prefer

Thanks
Craig

Im not really sure what they are going for, its in great nick just needs a wash which ill do if you want it, will post a pic here, i dont know what its worth if im honest but throw a number at me and we can go from there, if you have a double bubble screen spare (never know) could possibly trade? But thats ideally whay im aiming for

I have a blue one from my old bike and my mate who works in a body shop said he would do it at cost which would be about £20 for my paint. It's black with blue-ish flecks, so if the above doesn't happen you are looking at £20 plus labour.

I paid £50 for mine with infills when I bought my bike. Think that was quite a keen price though.

Well they seem to be around the 50 mark on ebay for a decent condition one with infills and 40ish without, so I am happy to offer either of you around that figure for just the cowl. Scott is your cowl a jet black gloss as my bike is black with the blue tint base and if im honest I would prefer it to match but of course price negotiations could be factored into it?
Pyro how much would he want roughly for labour cost as that is the black with blue tint on my bike?
Ive been hunting one of these for months and now im spoilt for choice. . . Like busses haha

Thanks
Craig

It should say your colour code in your owners manual if you have it?
