Looking for body/paint shop
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know of a good body/paint shop here in So. Cal?
The new engine will be installed soon and I want to get a "factory" paint job. Basically I want the car to look like it came off the assembly line that color. So engine bay, undercarriage, whatever else is needed. I do not want Maaco or anything similar... I want a real pro job w/ some custom work done to the car...
I appreciate it if anyone knows anywhere good... I'm in OC, but would travel to LA, Riverside, San Bernandino, or San Diego to get the job done right.
Thanks,
James
PS
Anyone ever head of "Maui Blue" as an original color?

Yup heard of the color, in fact the President of our old club had his TA repainted in Maui Blue, but I guess the big question is if the paint shop will know the color Here is a shop in Riverside you want to call:
West Coast Collision
9287 Orco Parkway Suite A
Riverside, Ca 92509
909-685-9313
Ask for Tim Fite or Dr. Weber
Haven't used them personally I am still looking around trying to get more quotes before I get either of my babies painted :lala:

Car: Yes...
Engine: Last time I checked...
Transmission: See "Engine"...
Yep, Maui Blue Metallic was a factory color option. All you need is the GM paint code and any good paint shop will be able to match the color.

Lol Well, I actualyl hate the color, but it was the original color of the car. Supposedly made it extra rare... whatever
I just want a place I can send it too, to get what I want. I amthinking kandy apple red with ghost flames... Not sure yet... Just kicking around some ideas. Any suggestions?
My current color ideas are:
Jet Black (high gloss/wet look)
Millenium Yellow
Bowling Green Green
Kandy Apple Red
Red I think is number one right now.. but any ideas?

Hansen Auto Body and Paint did a great job on my truck. They are in Cypress on Lincoln Ave. Their phone # is (714) 828-1550. Hope this helps.
