paint shop/body shop in sfbayarea

hi, fellas, anyone has a hood up on body shop in sf bayarea? or know a one that performs decent job for a good price?

i need to repaint my car. the paint is pretty bad. i know a paint job is expensive. the nice one are around $4500+. i am kinda on a budget here. don't want to spend that much on the car.

if you guys know a good shop please please let me know, any contribution is appreciated.

please be nice. i know paint job and cheap does not go well together. but figure wouldn't hurt to try.
thank you.

Just go to yelp and look for body shops that have good reviews (4+ stars). Then call each and every single one asking for a quote.

They did my whole paint job.




They prep everything & sand down the whole car, take everything apart & do it right.

They have done 3 G35 paintjobs that I know of, they sprayed my car, they sprayed some DG black & then a BS coupe pearl pink lol

They also spray in a heated booth. They are a legit shop they don't cut corners. He will hook you up if you say you know me. I have given him tons of work lol

I had a lot of work done to my car so my total came to right under 11k...I'm sure just a paintjob would be around 5k maybe even less.
