I've managed to source both parts pretty cheap (thanks to a member on here for the nosecone).
I've sprayed them both gloss black with standard halfords tin cans and i'm pretty happy with the results, not factory like but better than i was expecting after my last attempt on a dropped bike

The rest of the bike is black and grey (I don't own a camera so can't show any pictures).
Now my thoughts are...Could i take the panels i've sprayed to a pro and ask him to laquer them properly? Or will that not really make much difference? (i couldn't afford a proper spray job)
OR
Have decals made up to match them to the rest of the bike....
OR
Go all out respray the whole thing with a black and gold theme which i think would look pretty cool....(I would have the wheels powdercoated gold)
I'm kind of loathed to spray panels that aren't damaged at all (the rear panels and tank) I know this is a personal choice that i will eventually have to make, but i would appreciate any input...
