Good to hear you and bike are mending well. IMHO, flat black will only highlight/draw attention to the portions you're trying to patch up.

my 2 cents: save up some coin to to get a new paint job (factory or custom). Or snag some take-offs. Meanwhile, keep the razzed pieces on for now (we'll call that battle scars )

I would be careful when ordering painted peices, a lot of room for error. As far as painting, I would get someone who knows what they are doing to fix it. I got quoted 500 for a color change if I brought the fairings to them. Would be well worth it.

I have a 2001. I have only done the tail and the tank. They have turned out pretty nice. I took off all the stickers on those areas except "Suzuki" on the tank since it was under the clear. I am not sure what I am going to do about the Kanji on the lowers. I scratched up the surface with 320 sandpaper. I sprayed some gray primer and then some flat black. I did mine with the sub $4 rattle can.
