    hi again sorry for posting a lot but im just bored.

    Can i get anyone on here to professionally spray my zip?

    its still wears the deep scars from the fall a while back :cry:

    Im thinking Metallic Black,or matt black or gloss black with White wheels

    How much would you charge?

    decent black paint is hard to pull off... minimum for a flat colour would be 200. more for metalic. matt is a peice of piss, i wouldent do it personally...

    why not repair the damage and keep the bike as the SPECIAL EDITION it is?

    i dont mean you do it, i mean instead of spending lots of dogh sorting the lot, why not just pay to repair the busted pannel.... unless youve fucked the 3 main pannels on a zip i cant see it being too difficult.

    i could matt them for ya, but id feel bad taking your money as its never done right, can be done on the quick for the cost of a few cans of matt black and generally looks like you couldent be botherd.plus if you pay top dogh for matt black it will look the same as if somone just gace em a quick sand and blasted black over it. may aswell get some wallpaper paste and a bunch of newspapers and paper mache your pans.. still, by the time youve prepped the pans, primerd them, flatted them off, put matt black on, you may aswell just clear over the top and have shiny black.

    im not saying "stick wiht me" choose who you want your pait done by, your best bet is a local bodyshop as you can see examples of work then grumble if theres any problems wiht it. plus, you get what you pay for...

    jefro paints, he might be able to hook you up... otherwise id personally get looking at local bodyshops. we dont have a booth nocked up yet (soon come) so i cant really spray other than in my shed.... and thats weather dependant as water in the air = shit paint

    gives you an idea tho.

    take it to a shop?
    you get what you pay for in most cases with paint.

    if you want a good job done professional it will cost.

    if your bikes brand new why are you not content with it? :confused:
    you've asked about 70kits
    swapping for a shitty of a 125 runner
    changing to rear disk
    porting ponili kits

    do you not like it
