Quality Painter in OC?

Does anyone know of a quality painter in Orange County, CA? I know about Wet Works (might consider) and I have been dealing with another local in Anaheim (also may consider). I originally planned to powder-coat the door trim and handles, but the belt molding has molded rubber so it can’t go in the oven. I looked into Vacuum Metalizing, but takes too long and will result in similar look as paint.

I also plan to black chrome (spray) the grill (a little black in clear coat). I am hoping to find a tried and true quality painter nearby. You advisement is appreciated.

BTW - for those of you that saw and responded to my post of hideous dark grey powder coated wheels... I had them re-done and they look great!!!! I'm waiting for painter to color match the center caps (they are plastic and couldn't be powder coated). I will post pics when it's done - hopefully with door trim and grill done too!

Anyway, if you know of a quality painter please repond. Thanks!

If you need another OC Paint/Body Shop for an estimate, call up Quigley's Auto Body (949-768-5915) in Lake Forest. Ask for Bruce or Mark, and tell them that Mark with the IP TT'd G35/Skyline Coupe referred you. They do awesome work there... they've worked on many modified and high-end cars... and several members have gotten their cars fixed and painted there....

Take care,

Mark

Thanks for the responses - I appreciate it.

BTW - GRider35c, I like the darker look of the front emblem. I can’t tell in the pics if yours is flat black or black chrome. Mine is black chrome and I'm looking for something similar for the grill.
