These guys do an awesome job, and they're pretty cool. Honest, no bull____, and they'll take care of you. Just ask for Karl or Frank.

Talk to Esteban..... best painter / owner / worker in socal!!!

He gets his hands onto EVERY project, EVERY car that comes through their doors he ensures everything's done his way. He painted our car last minute in 2 days when we needed it, came into the shop at night on Saturday when we cracked our front lip and got it ready for us within 30 hrs. The guy simply rocks!

he didn't have to sponsor us to get front windshield on our car......

Pete Santini is somewhere around Huntington Beach... and yeah, he's not cheap... but he does great work... a lot of his stuff ends up on the covers of magazines.

My '97 Dakota was painted by him... very wicked work,... ended up on the cover of Truckin' Magazine in January '98.

Andrews Powdercoating Co. in Chatsworth, CA
Powdercoater.com

I know The Custom Shop works closely with another powdercoating company but I forget what they're called. If you're really interested, PM me & remind me to call them tomorrow. But I'm sure you can find somewhere closer to you. =/
