So i am looking to repaint my Ninja. I am getting sick of the green. I took it to a place and they want to charge a lot of money so i will just do it myself.

How should i go about this? I hear plasti-dip is really good. I am looking to just black it out.

I'd go with plain black with red detailing, it looks really nice in a ninja

I want to black out the whole body and then maybe do a trim of a certain color.

I just need to know which paint to use and how to go about doing this the proper way.

Oh, sorry mate, have you given a thought about matte black? It'll probably be a pain painting the entire bike

I think the blacked out color scheme is overrated but just my opinion

If you want it to be all black try plasti-dip and if you dont like it you can just peel it off

That's what i was thinking, it's not that expensive either which is good.

I'd never respray a Lime Ninja, such a nice and iconic paint job...

But if I would recommend something, I'd have to agree with 20 and go with All Black and some coloured detailing. I don't know about the paint, I'd probably use some sort of hard gloss porcelain paint on the frame.
