I think thats quite a fair price! Did you do any repairs / prep work yourself or did they do it all?

Not to mention Primers and 3 / 4 different colours of paint & Lacquer. :)

I dropped the plastics off and they did the lot, welded luggs and cracks etc. They used to respray alot of nc30 panels in their past so they knew what to look for . Waiting now for a new genuine set of fixings/screws to put them back on.

Am with you there, well worth the money for that finishing touch. Mine came with a random assortment that not only looked crap but also needed a random selection of tools to work with.

Keep up the good work :geek:

£500 is exceptional for a repair + respray! PM me the company details and where they are based when you can sir.

Thanks,
Alex

Awesome! I have a couple of side-panels from my ZXR that could do with being re-done... 8-)

Do you know if you can just post the panels to them for the work and they post them back when completed?? Also have they matched the lowers to the seat panels ie to the red panel lines match up? just wondered how they do that without them being on the bike and in situ?
