I will do it for you, piece of cake. If you can give me a color code, alpine white like the BMW color?, I can give sch. autobody a call and get u a quote for basecoat. Off the top of my head BC wouldnt be much more than $50, say another $50 for clear and chems, and Ill shoot it for $45 (same price I charge to paint a wheel). so $145 and I can do it for you. PM me if your interested. ---

To shoot a pair of bike fenders wouldnt take much more than 2/3 of a paint cup for 3 good coats. Gal of clear is like $70, hardner is like $25. I have 3 gals or so of clear (in stock aka sitting on the shelf in my paint room) and enough hardner. I have alot of supplies, and a bunch of basecoats too, but Bimmer white i dont have on hand. ---
