Paint touchup work?

Anyone here have any recomendation on places or person to get profesisonal touch up work done to scratches. I have a pretty decent size scratch and a few people said there are people who can take care of it and it would look just like new without repainting the whole panel.

Anchor Auto Body & Detailing in Burlingame will match paint and do very good work. Not cheap but they do a great job. I go there for wax/detail, they quoted me about 200bucks to match paint and install rear spoiler...

I used paint doctor to fix a small gash on my 05 DG rear bumper. I would say the color match was 99%, so it was pretty much perfect. Considering he does mobile, in a outside environment, I say he did a excellent job on my bumper and I'm a very very picky about paintwork. There was a little over spray on my car but I was able to easily remove it with my clay bar.

Too bad you guys arent in sac. The lady at my dads body shop who details does a REALLY good job. I can usually get a pretty good deal out of my dad too. Tryed to help out a 350Z owner, got him a whole bumper repaint for 300 dollars.
