    From one your local automotive paint suppliers, a bottle of Meguiar's #2 fine-cut cleaner and a little elbow grease will do magic on those pieces.

        Take the tank and side covers to a GOOD auto paint shop. Get a price to match the tank, and paint only the side covers. Should only be about $250 or less if you take badges off and wet sand LIGHTLY before you hand them over.
