Hey mate, the paint job set me back $300 which is pretty good considering the guy I got to do it painted the whole bike black (it used to be yellow) then airbrushed the flames on it. I am very happy with the final product.
As far as effects go for your bike It really depends on what you would want on your bike. There's alot of things you could do like flames, you could even get a mural painted onto it if you wanted. I like the flames but its really up to what you want. If you were to get flames though I would go with the "True Flames" effect. It looks much better than the normal looking flames.
Pearlescent paint is good but I personally wouldn't get it because I like some sort of design on my bike. If you just want a plain looking bike I would get it though because it looks cool when it changes colour. If you have any more questions just ask. Let me know what sort of designs you would like on your bike and I will look around for something that would look good.
Also if you are in Brisbane I can give you the number of the guy that airbrushed my bike if you want to get it done because he does a really good job and his prices are very good. I was quotes around $800-$1000 at most places to get my bike done.
