Default What body shop has done the best paint work for you?

I need to get my rear bumper re-painted. Originally the dealer body shop replaced and painted my dented rear bumper, but no matter how times they try they just can't get he paint right. Not the color, but the look of the finish. Massive orange peel, uneven clear coat, dull, buffer swirls, and even pores. So now I want to have my car re-painted by people who know wtf they are doing.

So if you guys have had your car painted by a body shop who's work was flawless, can you give me the name and address of that body shop? I would really appreciate it. Oh and the dealer shop I'm talking about is the Penske one in Downey. So don't take your car there.

Thanks.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm gonna check both of places out, since they're so close to each other, and I'll let you know how it turns. Thanks again.
