Default paint man

I am looking for somebody to paint this vizage kit. most of you know what I went though on my GReddy kit and dont want that again.

I would be willing to install the kit myself so I just need somebody match color and paint. also it would be much easyer if I could just drop the parts off and pick them if its up north its just a pain in the A$$ for me to keep having somebody follow me up
.
J Dawg bro jeff said you know somebody?

They do great work, but are fairly expensive. Everytime I go there the lot is filled with expensive cars.

They've done everything on my Honda.

Try European Body Works in Fairfax. I have personally seen a lot of their work on friend's audis and they do top notch work.

The problem isn't finding a good paint/auto-body shop, it's finding one that is skilled in working with Fiberglass and/or carbon fiber. Since shops that do strictly collision work only ever see Urethane and metal, most of them don't have a clue of how to prep/fit/paint other materials. I wish this weren't so difficult. I'd really like to get this hood painted.
