Reasonable Paint Shops...

I'm sure this has been talked about a lot and probably should search, but I'm doing this from my phone, and it wont let me. Sorry... anyway on to the purpose

Anyway, I was hoping to find out if there are any reasonable paint shops out there that do good work. Obviously its best to get feedback from happy customers that are willing to send work there way.

Anyway, I have a FD.... want it gunmetal, and jammed (anything the eye can see I want it gun metal). If people remove interior panels to see what color it was I will slap the **** outta them.... so far 3 non macco shops want 1800-2100, and I thought the economy would help me here, guess not.

Anyway, let me know if you know a shop that does good work for a good price.

-Rob

He got the Fenders, and he already started the work. Looks good, cant wait to get some pics up.

(Should of taken some before / after... but all I got will be afters, besides I'd rather not remember what it looked like before -.-)

I like how people keep referring these paint shops even though you posted a few days ago that DK had already started

C'mon people... READING IS NOT THAT HARD!
