welll its all matters on whats your painting and your budget and if your doing it yourself or someone else is doing it.... check out
Huge supplier of Automotive Paint, Auto Body Supplies, Airbrush Equipment, Car Detailing Supplies, Pinstripe Paint, Spray Guns & Safety Respirators at Wholesale Prices. Our items are factory direct and we carry a wide variety of Top Quality Brands.
that will give you alot of paint color options an they have paint kits...and their prices are pretty fair IMO you have your choice of acrylics like enamel, Lacquer or urethane.....it matters on budget...enamel is easiest to work with...lacquer IMO gives a longer lasting gloss and urethane is better for parts that might flex more than normal.... give alittle details on what you want to do..if your doing it or a shop is doing it and estimate a budget..that will help with giving you a better idea...an everything i have said is just IMO others might say otherwise...im going from personal experienceMy computer Tech job in miramichi,nb,canada

Devilbis HVLP - 400$
PPG color, primer, clear - 350$
Sand paper grits from 200 to 2000 - 50$
Air compressor, filters, lines, - 600$
Plasitic trouble repair - 100$
Spongejetting of all pieces: frame, swingar, plastic, etc - Free (only cause my friend works for them, but would have cost me a couple of hundred bucks easily)
Total - est 1500$
or several cans of duplicolor paint and sandpaper for what 100 to 200$ at most......Last edited by creepinghunter; 03-23-2008, 08:34 AM.

Go to a shop that does colour matching. Take the 3rd eye fairing with you and they will put it under the camera to find a match. One of the larger NAPA / UAP stores will probably have one.2000 Katana 600
