So here's the story:
I was driving down the highway 17 and debris from a roofing truck flew off the truck bed and hit my front bumper. It scuffed up my bumper and lip :mad: . I got down the license plate # and phone # of the company and contacted them. They agreed to pay for the repaint of my bumper :coold: . So know all I need are some names and numbers of GOOD paint shops any of you can refer. Preferably in the 408, Mt. View area, or Fremont/Newark/Union City area, to get a couple of quotes. Any help would be love!
Oh.. and I searched... I didn't find any posts that helped me.
So far, I'm going to get a quote from Almaden Auto.

Sunny Auto Body on Potrero and 17th St in San Francisco's down town area.
They painted my trunk and spoiler, did a great job.
They do repairs and tend not to do upgrades or complete color changes anymore, though.

Michael J in San Jose is good but very expensive.
Thanx.. I found the number. What I'm doing is getting quotes and they're just going to average them out. So the more expensive the better :naughtyd: .
So far I've got:
Almaden auto
Micheal J auto
Kuykendalls auto
Pilipinas auto
Any others I should add?

I heard good things about Sunny Auto Body as well. Lots of the "import" guys go there.
I know a good shop in Frisco but that may be out of your way.. PM me if you want to pay them a visit.
