Good call....... I have a repro short guard fitted to my Z1R-TC, but it seems a little mottled. I'm tempted to rub it down and repaint it in satin black, but if there's a better option I'd be interested to know.

I painted a few of the plastics on the Turbo with Halfrauds plastic bumper paint inc the chainguard and the finish is decent enough....

They are a bit shiny Tony but perfectly acceptable dependant on your expectations, they come up from time to time SH so its a waiting game and the repros will get you going in the meantime :)
