Which place is best to paint + install fiberglass body parts in Socal

I am getting my Fiberglass front bumper soon and I am looking for a place where I can get it painted and installed correctly. I have a place where I can paint at a cheap price and good quality too but that place is a collision body shop so I dont think they have experience installing Fiberglass parts. So I am looking for a place (in SOCAL) where they have experience installing Fiberglass parts. Please let me know. Thanks.

Thanks for the inputs. I've heard about R&J before. I'll try to contact them once my bumper is here.

21st Century Auto & Body in San Gabriel also does fine work at a reasonable price, ask for Bruce 626-285-5489.... Keep this information handy, with a f/g bumper you'll be using it frequently!

^thanks Gary for the input. I contacted them for a quote, but then they said they can't guarantee the fitment. They can test fit it first and if I like it, they paint it. But if I dont like the way it looks, they charge me $40 + about $30 more for drilling the holes. So at the end, I dont know if they can make it fit or not.

Both the shops mentioned can MAKE the parts fit.

What the collision shop told you about just drilling the holes may not be enough to correct fitment issues.

If you need a quote or appointment to R&J..PM me and I can help you out.
