Default Good paint shops around raleigh/jacksonville area

I was looking around when i was in raleigh today, looking for someone who knows what they're talking about with the z, but I can't seem to find anyone who doesn't say the same thing 10 million times which is "I won't paint your bumpers or sides because of the matching". And so expensive too... Anyone around this area(s) have any suggestions?

I know it's a little far, but I couldn't be happier with the work from Quality Body Shop in Havelock. I took the car down and they analyzed the paint color (Silverstone). I drop shipped the bumper to them. When it was done, the owner delivered it to me. A Perfect match!

Just a front bumper, but it matches perfectly and it ran $200 including tax. I tipped him $20 for delivery! I was told its where Carolina Nissan sends all their picky customers. While I was there, I saw a Corvette they had done a full restoration on and it was beautiful
