So a few weeks after getting my TL-S, it was hit in a parking lot while I was at work....the impact was on the right corner of the front bumper, which caused an indentation and crack. So I am going to be purchasing a front bumper cover I assume (correct me if I am wrong) and have to get it painted. In addition to that I decided to get my '00 R6 painted the same color as my TL-S, which is SSM. Now I would like to get your opinion on whether I should purchase the paint and bring it to a shop or just have the shop use their own paint? I have time so waiting on the paint to be shipped to me. Basically want the most cost effecient method. Thanks

Quoted from above: "you look down you go down" While its great in an orgy, it sucks on a bike.

Thats friggin great, we should have a thread just about that.

Anyway, i would let them do it, just in case it isn't matched exactly or changes color after some time, you can let them assume all responsibility; they can't say "Oh well you brought the paint"

trust me...I had my first spill on my bike in june and the 2nd part is very true....I was lucky and walked away with bruised back, my pride broken a bit, and some scratches

let the pros mix the paint...they probably won't want to use yours anyway...and like said above, they will have an easier time warrantying their own paint vs. yours..
