You may consider painting it yourself. Enough "how to's" on the web. I just priced out paint and cleaners, clear, hardeners, primer, etc etc during lunch today and materials are under $200. I have a bud who has done some painting and the results are as good or better then the local body shops. It's your bike and your passion so I would expect the care and nurturing to be greater then someone without a vested interest..
I'm torn between a dark blue pearl and a dark burnt orange pearl... I'm thinking the orange and then add the knee pads for some contrast.....
