Advice on slip-on colour

[Vapor]

Hey all

I have ordered a Black Micron from the UK, which appears we could have a lead time of 2 months. I was given incorrect information by a guy at the distributors. (He said there had been a recall done on the black ones, and there could be a 3 month wait before the order could even be processed). Anyways, in the mean time I went to the dealers and just said put the silver one on and I will look at getting it coated black myself. Then the guy at the dealers has said that there was not a recall and that the order still stands. So I have a decision to make -

I can keep the silver one and look at getting it coated black myself. or I can take the silver one back for no penalty and wait for the black one. I am not sure on what is possible with slip ons as far as coatings and high temp painting.

There is a price difference between the silver and black ones, but then I guess the price difference would be negligable if I was to get the silver one painted myself.

Any advice or opinions much appreciated.

You can see the silver one here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=68423

Wait for the bleck one. The silver in the picture don't look so flash & you might as well get the factory finish, seing as it's already coming.

Wait for the black one dude, painting might be a hassle. Temperature issues and it won't look as flash as the factory black one I rekon.
