Default Paint shops in Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, NC

I need to get my sc300 re-painted, and I am looking for a top notch shop to do it. Shop would preferably be located in the Raleigh/Chapel Hill/Durham area. Unfortunately, I dont know of anyone around here. Can anyone make any recommendations?

I've always used paragon collision on Capital Blvd. in Raleigh. They will take care of your car. They do great work but is a little pricey. Just mention that Mr. Bui sent you there and they will take care of your baby.

I am thinking of driving 2 hours to get this done there because there aren't any super reputable shops in Wilmington, I just looked at Paragon Collisions website and it seems to be good work although there are no base prices in painting.

I'm just trying to get my front bumper and sideskirts done, any idea? Ballpark?

well ice after seeing this here i went and checked them out if you are getting the whole car painted it's only 8 to 10k but they take everything off to paint it.after i picked my jaw off the floor i calmly said goodbye.so i guess for what you want would be 1500 minimum but that is just a guess i would call first(919-878-9510)the turn around time 2 to 3 wks but i'm not sure on that.that time was for the whole car i have a 300 also i wonder if the pearl would be more.hey let me know what price they give you just for what you want maybe i might do that also.igot a quote from maaco in sc last yr for 1600 but that was just the exterior.got to go

Holy crap! Does that include yanking the motor and all the interior parts and EVERYTHING stripped off the car? Or did they say.

That price more than likely is for the entire car stripped down to it's bare chassis for a full respray. What you can also opt. for is for the entire full respray with all door jams minus floor board and engine bay. That'll save you around $2-3k.
