basically 500 bucks for their paint service. Thanks for the info. That gives me a rough figure to compare what the dealer is going to propose.

I just came back from the dealer. ordered the paul jaffe 10" bars to be color matched to the bike and the inner fairing is going to be a dealer swap with an outside contractor doing the paint work on the inner fairing. the parts guy said a week or so on getting the stuff in and one day to install everything. also ordered up the air vent screen for the glide. pictures to come when its all done.
