Well I know its not close to you. I have to recommend Mortenson's Custom Touch in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. He is painting my car currently and it should be ready for pick up in a couple weeks.

He came highly recommended by Tim Bruning and Jerry Logan cause they used to work together at Steve's. He left Steve's to go work at Foose. He does award winning paint at a reasonable price. the price is all relative I guess. If you think you want to get above average bodywork and paint that is going to cost you $25k+ with a +/- 20%. You did save some money by doing the bottom of the car.

The hard part is nailing down a good price. Are you planning on trailering your car to each shop for an estimate? The quoted price won't be close if they only go by pictures.

Some examples of his work. More pics of his work on his facebook page.

Jerry Logan ,the owner of Bushwacker, where I work had him body and paint both these cars that were at SEMA.

He worked at Foose, and did body and paint on both Chips Riddler winners.
