I painted my entire bike after I wrecked. It took a few weeks since I had so many pieces.
You'll be spending at least 200 dollars. Quality paint is not cheap. It needs to be primed, color matched, reduced, and applied in several layers, wetsanded, and then a few clear coats need to be put on top.
Since its just one piece, you should consider doing it yourself. I've seen some great spray can jobs, and unless your fussy about your bike, you shoudl be able to do a good enough job to look good at 10/10. 10feet away at 10 mph.
Im fortunate enough to have an air compressor, so all the hard work was getting it prepped.
Here is a pic of my paint job. It still needs to be compounded and buffed to bring out the shine. Im just showing you this because if "I" of all people can paint my entire bike, you can knock out a littel side fairing.
