    Hi guys and gals.
    Wondered if anybody knows where I could get some paint that will be factory same or color matched I have bought a rear seat cowl for my R6 and it needs to be painted.
    I have seen a couple of company's stateside but they seem reluctant to ship outside of the US due to the aerosols (don't know why they would be? lol)
    So am looking for a UK company that is able to supply me and obviously need the paint to match my bike :cheers:
    Thanks
    Si.

    There's a paint supplier on the same ind est as me that might help, Kent paint + panels.
    Certainly worth a phone call!

    We've never done bike paints, only car paint. Bike paint has too many tints in each colour and takes too long to match, especially for an aerosol worth £14.50. Sorry.

    I've bought paint from these guys before. They make the rattle cans while you wait, so you'll need your paint code etc. Mainly water-based (if I remember correctly) and they have a good range of 2K lacquers and the bits you need. They don't mail stuff out, so you'll need to pop over to see them. They have a few branches, but this is the one I've used;
