I'm changing my pearl/sedona red ct to all sedona red, or something close.   Can anyone give me an idea of what I can expect to pay for the paint and how much I should get?

Thanks;

All one color, Lacquer, one quart. Some range up to 50-70 bucks, depending on the brand.
            Are you planning to spray it your self? If so, lacquer is very forgiving, in that you can make a mistake and correct it in about 20 minutes, if the weather conditions are right. Temp, humidity.

No, a buddy of mine is spraying it, I was just wondering what the paint should go for. That dosen't sound like alot but my experience with paint is just on houses.  Thanks.

Use the Paint Wizard near the top on the right to find Make, model, year. These guys are supposed to be really good at matching original Honda colors. I got the link from a few old posts, good comments.

I would think around $200 or less for PPG paint.  the clear is about $70. Mine is pearl and Sedona Green and the green cost a bit as it has the metal flake but really looks nice.

I got lucky and found a guy that did my bags for about $400. paint and all. He did an awesome job for me.

 He quite his own business and went to work for a local shop when the economy was more in the dumps so I ended up painting the fairing and fenders myself.
