Bodyshops in Louisiana???

What's up everyone, I have a issue. I'm in Cali right now, and I'm coming back to Louisiana next month and looking to get my bodykit put on and the whole car repainted. I would get it painted out here but I'm going to be leaving here within the next month and I can't wait around for my car to be finished. So....I was just going to get it repainted whenever I get back home. Anyone know of any GOOD shops in the state or Miss. to get painted??? Thanks.

Darren

honestly I cant point you in a good direction as far as that goes . But 3 months after you get her painted you should let me put some high end wax on there to make sure she stays looking brand new .

def have a garage. amite isnt that far from the house. i do not want a cheap paint job. im lookin to spend between 3-4k for bodywork. i have a full kit to put on and a few dents to pull. i would def appreciate it if you can find out the name of that shop in amite for me! what are you charging for a detail, and do you do the interior as well?

yea no prob man . They used to do my buddies stuff he was always getting stuff custom painted and they always did good work. Yes I also do interior I will take care of you for around $300-$500 for paint sealant than a dual layer of dodo supernatural it will prob take all day / or you could step it up a notch and have me apply Swissvax Crystal rock for $800 and i would come back in 6 months and apply for free http://www.detailersdomain.com/index...ROD&ProdID=345
