    Anyone know where I can get factory paint for a 08 Ninja other than from the states?

    Dupont do lots of bike colours. Find you local supplier. Actually, you're not too far away. I use Premier panel supplies http://www.premierpanelbeatingsupplies.com/ Talk to Prem. He'll probably tell you to bugger off, but insist that he finds some. We managed to get some colour for the Mrs R6 when we needed it. A paint code would help.

    Spraykote Kelly green used to be the closest off the shelf colour to buy, it was not perfect a bit lighter from memory,

    any decent paint supplier should be able to get pretty close if you take a panel into them, and most will put it into a spray can for you,

    the offical colour off the parts fische is Lime Green (777) not sure if that helps

    The Railways use that colour in Tunnels, so they should have shit loads somewhere.

    Any panel beater will be able to point you in the direction of a local bunch who can mix paint (a paint code is just a number that you use to find the paint "recipe", usually)

    The colour's called Electric Plasma Blue I think? I just need enough to paint the front and right side fairing. It gives a code on ColorRite but I'm not sure if that corresponds to paint that you can mix or not, because it's only three digits. I always thought colour codes were more.

    I had a guy colour match a panel on my car not long ago and it came out a lot different to the colour of the rest of the car, so I'm a bit hesitant to get some mixed.
