Default Spensive!

Just rang Dream machine to get a quote for re spraying my tail piece as it was damaged by bungy straps and then the protective film that i put over the other bits to prevent further damage to paintwork

so damage is £150!!

Ouchy!
mind you, would neaten the bike up a lot and make the rear match the front as that was resprayed a yr ago after i was knocked off!

Well, here's to saving!

thought about but cant think of any where else,
the reason for going back there is they cut there own decals, nless any one can remeber a thread about custom paint a while ago whith links to sticker kits??

Might consider it, but less hassle to get the whole thing done by them!...
possibly,

Who needs money anyway!!!!!

OUCH!

Lets just say, I couldn't afford to get all the panels done there! It would be second mortgage time.

You could try this guy. He re-sprayed some panels on my Kwak when I binned it - very good colour match and he can sort out stickers too. Cheap as well.
