Default Good body shop?

I have a couple chips in the paint on the hood. I also have some ugly scratches on the rear fender by the driver's door. The usual bubbling paint on the roof panel. I would like to get the paint fixed but have no idea the cost. Nor do I know of a good shop to take it to. I understand it is hard to estimate the cost without looking at the car, but a ballpark figure is all I am looking for. I am in Virginia Beach, Virginia - know of any good shops?

Whats the color of the car?

WHen you have metallic paints involved all the area's you mentioned the car will need a full respray to make it "look right" I am sure shops can do sections but with the blending needed its often a full job and if you dont have a SS or WS.6 hood, might as well consider finding one since the cost diff should be minor (hood fitment would be the hinging factor).
