Big dog:
Hi, I'm a newbie here- this my first post. I'm getting a Tange hot heart f and f off of my long suffering Mrs tomorrow and i want to get her dressed as an E.T. - the frame, not the Mrs. I read this thread and while a few names were mentioned it doesn't seem anyone really stuck their hand up. Is there anyone currently doing this kind of paint work and how much should I expect to pay?

Merry Christmas

About the paint, I vaguely remember someone mentioning a Datsun colour that was close...
I got this in an email from Howie Cohen a while ago:

Hi Paul,
My recollection is that the red color was close to Pantone WARM RED C or Pantone RED 032C.
However the paint had some metallic sparkle to give it the CANDY APPLE (flamboyant) red color appearance.
...The frames & forks were painted at the Kuwahara factory...
