How much to fix?

Post by smek »

So I've had a couple of potential buyers ask if I've priced up a fix for my slightly scratched rear fairing.
How much do you reckon it'd cost?
I'm guessing most places might not already have the candy plasma blue so that might push the price up a bit.

Here's a pic of the scratched area.

Well in my mind I've already done that, but I am curious and it would help if I could give a reasonable answer when they ask.

Mate, I've got a box of band aids in my bathroom, one should be enough.

The problem is even though it's only fairly minor it's an excuse for an instant beat down on price. If your after top dollar the thing has to be absolutely faultless. If you've got dings on it it doesn't matter what the rest is like, it's a dunger.

I'd fix it before selling it.

Put a decal over it, and do both sides. ;)
