Had an old Trek done a couple of weeks ago by Atlantic Cycles (Atlantic Boulevard). There is another crowd in bristol, Argos cycles I think. Couldn't find anyone in Ireland, although if I had the time I would have had a crack at sanding the bike, bought decals on Ebayand sending it into a friend in an panel beaters for the rest..

Cost about £300, just plain pearl black with Trek decals and clearcoat. Not cheap, more than the frame was worth - a 2000 model Trek 5500, but some sentimental value there and the quality of the respray was good (tiny little bit of bubbling under one decal, very tiny, some overspray on threads making it difficult to put it back together, but apart from that...). Will put up photos here in a few days when the bike is rebuilt.

I think Argos cycles can do more elaborate schemes, matching the original colors if you like but obviously the more elaborate, the more expensive.

Messy business spraying a carbon frame. The cost is all in the labour as you have to hand sand them rather than chemically strip them.
