Recommended Paint Shop In SO CAL Area?

I have decided to go all out. After my car got Horribly Keyed. I have decided instead of repainting it black (which looks beautiful waxed) but gets dirty 10 seconds after the wash is over. I am going to have my SS/SC Painted Aspen White (BMW M3 White, STI White) with Full blue racing Stripes. What I am looking for is someone who has had paint work done to their car in so cal if they can Recommend me to someone so I can get some quotes going. I am very excited to get this done. Please let me know. Thanks.

Bump...Anyone?

Engine bay will not be painted, Not seen, don't care. The doors have to be taken off anyway so the door jams will be painted. I know its going to be a big job, but I dont care. I will have a WHITE ss/sc I Can't wait.

I found a shop near me that is going to do it. $6500 price tag. but Everything gets painted, and they give me a lifetime warranty on the paint. I'm going in tomorrow to see what they can do for me. I can't wait!!
