depending on where you are, the one around my area (warrington) is rage designs.
not cheap by a long way but will do what you ask and a superb job, they do alot of BSB, WSB and ducati work.
However if paying that sort of money, it may be worth considering getting an OE job done esp if you plan on ever selling the bike in the future.
a custom paintjob can make a bike very difficult to sell when bored with it. but i am sure you already know that.

I saw Big Stinks UK NC30 yesterday in the flesh. It's was featured in Practical Sportsbikes last year.
The paintwork is first class, it's in the RWB UK colour scheme. I couldn't fault it. A lot in Rhyl did it I think. If you search you'll find his thread on the rebuild. If I was doing mine, they'd be a worthy consideration.

Used a company called Altamura for my repsol blade. Perfect finish and exact colour match unlike dream machine which was nothing like stock colour.
