Default Need advice, good paint shop?

I got a friend in SF and he´s got a car painted in custom white pearl and want a new front bumper.
Do you know any good painters in the area willing to try? 100% paint match not needed but pretty close.

Thanks, just trying to help him find a good one, he picked up the S2K for me.

He want to add a new lower half of the front bumper but it´s hard to find a company willing to try.
Never buy a car with custom paint guys, looks cool but not worth it.

Luis @ L&M Car Touch Up.

He's a mobile painter, but I've used him several times and he matches 99% ALL of the time. I've never seen a body shop replicate what he can do, and he's MOBILE to boot!

He's quite pricey, but find me a body shop that can do the work he does (quality) and I'll go to them instead. He does everything from rock-chip repair, dent repair (only major dents that require bondo), scuffs, rim repair, the list goes on.

He digitally matches paint, and only uses OEM paints (ppg, etc.)

Tell him Aaron @ AC Detailing sent you, and he'll take care of you

Thanks a lot! This is exactly the reason I asked.
