Anybody know of a shop or private party that does budget paint work? Looking to have a kit mounted and sprayed. I know you get what you pay for. Just looking to get something thrown on and to at least be the same color. It's probably going to get smashed to bits anyway. lol.

Hey guys, didnt want to open a new post so I thought I would ask here.

Anyone knows any body shop near Long Beach area that can do fiberglass repairs and paint? Nothing too expensive. Probably 3k range. Thanks!

Does anyone have any recommendations for paint shops in San Diego? I was referred to Primer by a lot of people but they are backed up until the end of summer. I am in the Navy and am expecting orders soon so I want this done before I leave (assuming my new orders take me out of San Diego). I plan on painting my car black. Engine bay, door jams, etc.
