    Cool Who needs a fresh lick of paint?

    Hey dudes

    Just painted my mates ZXR400 in ice white with a purple/blue pearl. Havnt painted in some time but it bought the flame back the bike looked so sick, so if anyone needs their bike painted id be glad to help out with a real cheap price and a pro finish. I use only the best PPG Paints, Ill post some pics of the ZXR once we have it back together also. I got some wicked colour ideas too if you cant think of anything.. Im keen to do a real deep black with a Red pearl i seen it before.. looked like some kind of demon bike lol

    Hey mate, I've got a ZXR250 that's in need of some lovin'. What sort of price are you talking? I think the bodywork for the ZXR400 and ZXR250 are almost identical.

    are the fairings in good shape? if you just want a new paint job, im thinking like around $200 plus paint, so would probley cost you around $500 for most colours, otherwise id just have to have a look see. what area you in?

    what colour you thinking?

    Even IF you had an outside dunny, what paint would you prefer?

    I've been toying with the idea of painting my bike and hear from people that PPG is great. It's funny how some things work for some people and not for others.
