Save yourself some time and Paint it black yourself! There is stuff called "Plasti-Dip" and it isn't perm but still looks great.

Did it to mine for $10 and 4 hours time.

Cool

I used Krylon Fusion matte black for mine. Worked a treat. No priming needed. Just clean the parts well and spray a few light coatings. Great paint...

I live in Thailand where these are made and therefore cheap as chips.
Even so I painted mine black on day 2 of introduction just to see if it looked better, and 28,000 Km later is is still looking fine

Wet sand, prime, and paint using a rattle can. Job done and money to spend on beer

Benefit of Plasti Dip is that it can be removed easily too.

Figured its a good option if your scared of spray painting any part of your bike.
