For now I can't afford to have my subframe colour matched and sprayed, so I'm looking for off the shelf spray paint to do the job myself.

Before I go down Halfords and waste money has anyone found a good close match of paint for the 'graphite grey' colour of the Uly/XB12 frames?

Fangks! :)

I may be wrong, but I thought Buell did touch up paint, give Nobby a ring at Black Bear...

Hmm... "about £35 a can and at least a couple of weeks from the States"

Think I might try a couple of cheapo Halfords cans and see how they look first



::::::EDIT - paint code is M0310.1AAYBP - gone and ordered some. I'm fickle like that (was £33.16 including delivery)

Thumbs up for BB again :yup:
