No idea how to fix this besides getting a new cover which is a bit pricey. What kind of paint color should I use for this to get it close to looking normal again?

This might help with repairing the stator cover, http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2802

Can't help with paint colour, I'm afraid.

Awesome, guess I didn’t search in the right place. I’ll try that for the fins at least.

So, coincidentally, I noticed a tiny chip on one of my fins yesterday. Rummaged through my paint supply, and found a can of Rustoleum Carbon Mist, not hi-temp, but maybe since it's on the edge of a fin it will be ok.
