Default Auto body shop recommandation

Hi guys. Looks like it is not my day today. My second car, a Graphite Gray Evo IX MR, just got keyed today in San Jose. Since the damage is too deep and beyond the clear coat, I am afraid I have to repaint one of the passenger door. Please let me know the approximate cost and which body shop has a good reputation around the Bay Area. I live in Fremont. Your help is highly appreciated.

EMC in Fremont. They are not cheap, but they do quality work.

If not EMC, then. . .
If you work near Mtn. View/Sunnyvale, many S2kers (myself incl.) have gone with Shawn at Active Auto Body in Mtn. View.

Guys, thanks a lot for all the great referral. I will definitely check out all of them. Unfortunately, due to the cost of the paint job and my $500 deductible, I am afraid I have to pay by myself. I will keep everyone post about the result afterward. Thanks a million!
