Default LA Paint Shops?

I got a small ding on my rear bumper and a couple of scratches near my side mirrors. I'd like to get them painted and find a place that can paint a spoiler (future purchase).

I went by Maaco today in Torrance and got quoted something so absolutely ridiculous that I won't even repeat it here.

Anyone know reliable places in the LA area that could do LeMans Sunset without charging an arm and a leg?

Is Earl Scheib the name of a paint shop? I don't quite understand your message. Is =x a smiley, a don't-go-there, what?

LOL! Earl Scheib! I brought my car to Carriage Auto Body in Van Nuys, it's over there getting the kit installed as we speak. I've brought 5-6 other cars of mine there before, they do a WONDERFUL job and use the best German paints from Glassl

I drove up from SD to get my chip repaired here. Get a quote from Rich (owner), and say that a guy with a Chrome Silver Z sent you. I had a rock penetrate my 3M paint protection on my hood and he fixed it nicely at a great price.
