Does anyone know of anyone that can touch up some chips?

Ditto Carnica...they even have mobile guys but i prefer to take it right to the shop b/c its right by my work. Actually when I oroginally picked up my car, I made Bredemann touch up some spots that I didn't like. Later the area around the bumber trim in the back started to chip and I was pissed....I went over to Carnica and showed them. They totally re-did my entire back and front bumper an replaced the bumber trim. They were extremely apoligetic; for all they knew I could have totally lied about the paint chipping being their fault. The manager didn't even ask any questions though, he just took it for a couple days and it came back perfect.
Ask for David...I don't think Charlie works there anymore.

Thanks, that's great. Any cost information? What would a typical front end cost to refinish? I have some surface rust on my hood too from rock chips I'd like fixed and then some minor touch ups around the car.

Thoughts?
