Color Change - GOOD paint shops? (in NJ or near)

Looking to change my color and curious of a few things:

I heard "Take it to a bake shop, they do much better paint curing"... never heard of this before, any ideas?

Also, looking to paint the entire car (if not too expensive) including door jams, etc. Any idea how much it *should* cost?

How much is a fair price if just painting the exterior panels?

Any GOOD paint shops in central/coastal NJ or near there?

Thank you in advance for any and all help!

Id say any one who knows what they are doing and they do it right would charge 5k easy no engine bay. Unless you wanna not disassemble your whole car and use cheap paint, Then you could save more.

Any reputable shop should be able to do a color change.

We have a bake set up, it just gets done faster. When im done painting I hit a switch and it bakes the car at 138 for 30 minutes. Then its dry. Painting the entire car is expensive! Sorry..... you get what you pay for.
