Default Paint Shop

I might pick up a cf hood and looking to paint the hood berlina black and leave the vents cf. Was wondering if anyone had any first hand experience with shops that do good paint jobs without an expensive price. Let me know

bump

so anyone else got any shops in mind? ima hit up kevin and see whats up.

but would kevin or any other shop be able to color match my unpainted front lip berlina black without painting the lip while its on the car? im looking to just dropping off the lip and picking it up when its done.
