Thinking of getting my bike re-sprayed either matt black or dark green gloss. Any pics to help me make up my mind?

Its the attention to detail
Inside of chain stay contrasting color with decals
Little touches that cost not a lot but either make or brake a paint job
Makers name on the underside of downtube...lapierres washing instructions....little touches..
Your name engraved on the brake levers and highlighted in main colour.? Pure gucci.
Descent decals with shadows.

Becky Kirk- can i ask where did you get your stickers from and is that a standard colour or a respray? Think Mrs JP would like some of those stickers for her new bike!

This was my British Racing Green metallic DH bike when it was brand new. Sadly no longer owned due to having a family!

The metallic BRG was just gorgeous, especially in the sun. In low light it looked like a very high gloss black. Nicolai stopped offering the colour choice shortly after I got this due to the paint no longer being made by their supplier.

Got the stickers from here: http://jamiecurry.angelfire.com/cyclealterations/decals/decals.htm
Not just a random site I found on the internet, I know the chap who does it - he's only recently started this up as a business.

It's just the standard colour ๐Ÿ™‚
