Actually dont know about hyedrabad but i just repainted my 220 at bajaj vashi and paid around 8k.... Also if u do it at some painter would be cheaper and prices may increase if you choose a custom colour like pearl white .... Well thats my personal experience and opinion though, guys please correct me if i am wrong.........

My 4 year old bike Fiero F2 was also looking dull last year. I got some touchups&lacquer coating done at a place in Secunderabad, Taj TriStar lane. Result was bike became as good as new without shedding the original paint&stickers. PM me for more details&have a look at my bike in my profile album.

I recently got my unicorn painted black myself. I don't about hyderabad but here in bangalore i went to this guy that a friend of mine had suggested. I got the bike painted black with the engine/chassis/swingarm being painted black too. A combination of glossy finish and matt ended up costing me 4,500 INR. From my experience, if you get only the body painted i shouldn't cost you more than 2.7 to 3k.
Hope that helps.

Unicorn may come out to be cheaper I think
