Had a bike painted by Mark long when he did the work....Now Kenny of Razor graphics does the work.. I went there last week witha stock fender off of my steet glide with a Slight (and I mean SLIGHT) dent in the fender. Iasked Kenny what he would charge to fix the dent and re-paint the front fender. He got out he calculator, and after about 3 minutes of punching numbers, and with a straight face said $589.00!!!![sm=escape.gif]Took it to a auto repair place..fixed and painted $125.00...[sm=confused06.gif]Enjoy Mark Long and his ridiculous pricing...Yours should be in the neighborhood of $500,000.00...Oh yeah, Kenny told me I could have it back in 3 weeks..this for a guy who paid them $5,500.00 to paint my last bike!! Talk about a rip off!!

Damn! I was thinking around $5k with the car involved. I'll wait to see what their response it. Do you have any other recommendations for painting? I want it to turn out perfect and don't mind paying some bills but just not some crazy amount.

If you can't do blue and white then I guess it'll work.

BTW, great color...you're bike will rock with that paint.

i know they quoted me around $2500 to paint ghost flames all around the bike.
if you can wait until this weekend i can check around in the area for you. will also be riding up to winchester harley if they have any recommendations. I can also check with SKIBO's here in stafford see if he will paint a bile.

If you want to check around, I appreciate it. I return in July and the car will take 90-120 days to be made so I have some time. I can even removed and install the pieces to make it easier/cheaper. I have a enclosed trailer to deliver/pickup the sidecar too. A shop may be more willing to paint the tins if I do this for them.
