A lick of paint et viola

Some of you will remember the PBNI track day from last year on the 9th Sept (my birthday) and my little off after only 4 corners into the 2nd session (don't worry, I ended up taking off the lowers and did the last 3 sessions 1/2 naked ohh-err)
This is how the bike looked,

and this is how the bike ended up looking,

and it looked like that until today when I finally extracted the digit. The fibre-glassing was done by a mate (thanks Rhory) as I hate that stuff and I did the sanding, filling, more sanding, priming and painting myself.
These are a few photo's of what went on.

So eventually, afer all the sanding was done, I got to painting them up,

All I need is the Honda sticker that goes on the belly-pan and it'll be back to normal again.
