Default Paint Shop

Anyone know of a good custom shop in the Dallas, Tx area? I'm looking to get the brake calipers painted, and also consider some other custom paint schemes for the hood. I realize the calipers are not hard to do, but I do not have the time to do this myself. Also, anyone have a price estimate as to how much the calipers might cost? Thanks in advance for the help.

I'm up for a group purchase if we can organize it. I'm in the north dallas / plano area, and I'm looking to get the brake calipers powder coated sooner rather than later. Anyone know a ball park figure for getting this done?

If you need something powdercoated try pauls powercoating. He did some stuff on my friends gli and it looked good as well. Plus if youve heard of the car club 16ness he does all their stuff and their cars are sick. Check him out at www.paulspowdercoating.com
