Default Dropped my RR05 - suggest a cost effective solution guys? (LONDON UK)

Hey guys,

dropped my RR05 on icy roads (stupid me put a little to much juice going around a corner).
Damage is purely paint work, want to restore to standard colours - but can anyone in / around London (United Kingdom) suggest a reasonable body paint specialist. I`m a disaster for fine paint work, so would not even attempt.

Pics attached.

Thanks

ya, I dont think I would have been riding on icy roads....

good luck with the paint specialist find, mine looked like that when I dropped it and I got my neighbor to repair the mid-fairing for $150 (i think) and it looked brand new.... paint was expensive. hes been doing body work all of his life so hes pretty good at it.

Its probably going to be a better option to buy new fairings than to match those if you are worried about the. In the long run might be more cost effective.
