Arrrgh Need paint repair please help!

Hi guys I did a really stupid thing yesterday. Long story short I scraped my rear bumper into a light pole and now I need some help locating a good shop in SoCal to have it repainted No visible dents, but it does need to be completely repainted. A shop in L.A. (Chinese shop, of course hehe) quoted me $450 but I have heard they do a great job. Does that sound reasonable to you guys? Anyway any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

May I ask where you had it done? Was it a repair (reconditioning) or just repaint? Thanks
