Default Good paint shop in Orange County?

Has anyone had any good experiences with paint shops in the Orange County area?

I'm looking to get my front bumper repainted from all the rock chips.

you could go to mob works in orange.

however they have been swamped recently.

For front bumper stuff I would just get it done at one day body and paint. Because it will just get messed up again with rock chips.

See I would get it done at 1 Day, but the last time I took it there they got overspray on moldings, my rims, engine bay, and windows. Granted painting was decent but their attention to detail was unsatisfactory. My girlfriend got into an accident recently and got her car fixed at a shop nearby. They did a good job and quoted me about $200 to get the front bumper repainted. I think I will give that Mob Works place just to see what the time frame would be like. Thanks for the suggestion Bobowah

I'll second WetWorks. Joe does excellent work. Great service too -- he even painted the center of my wheels to match the body, gratis.

mobworks does good work but tends to slack off sometimes- they did a really mesy job on my kit and I had to get it all redone at a local shop.

I've always dealt with Insurance Collision Centers in Santa Ana, CA. They are the shop that Tustin Infiniti uses, as well as the main Lamborghini body shop down here. Great guys and they always do good work.. A little expensive but I always go there knowing my paint will match considering that they work on Infiniti's all day long.

If you call ask for Stephen Baldwin (no pun intended thats his name) tell them Pete sent you.

You can try hitting up Carolyn @ MOB Works in Orange or if you are willing to make the drive, try contacting Mia @ DTM Autobody in EL Monte.
