European Motor Car Works in Costa Mesa. Outstanding quality. They work on Vettes, Astin Martin and some other high end cars. He (Kai) does a paint match better than I have ever seen and has done lot's of wide bodies. He does Calloway conversions (the body mods) for Calloway as well.

I used a small little local shop here in Montana. It's not rocket science. Any auto body should be able to get it done.

If you are going to pay someone to do it....They are the best.What color car are you modifying?
Who ever you have do it...Ask them how they are going to do the front inner wheel wells. How they handle this will affect the price greatly.

Because the tint coat paints are very hard to match and can require a lot more paint work.... Black can be tough also...but you should be fine.
Like I said in the previous post...make sure you ask the shops how they are going to handle the inner fender liners. That way you can do a good apples to apples comparison. Swaping the front inner liners will cost you about $1,500 extra and some shops do it, Some modify what is there...and others leave a big gap.
