Default Any mobile paint guys around?

I have 4 problem spots on some pure white racing stripes that I would like to get taken care of that have chipping and are scratched. Does anyone here know of anyone who can take care of these spots at the location of the car? I also may need 2 dings taken out of the doors possibly. Car also needs to be potentially wetsanded/buffed/detailed, but that can be later. Mainly looking for price possibilities of someone coming out to fix the areas on the stripes. Here is a pic of the work to be done as far as paint goes:

Fwiw I've never seen a mobile guy do a good job. Or will it last. I have a couple of friends that can fix that though. Both being shops. Lmk.

oh ok - well if they are in the NW Houston area, I'd be interested to hear. I was thinking/hoping it would be easy since it is just white and in a few spots, but I'd be interested in hearing some quotes.

I had a guy come to my shop and paint my race car.



Very pleased with the work and price. Painted extra doors, fenders, hood, front/rear bumper covers ...

But from the thread conversation, you are in the Houston area, I believe.
He is located west of Ft. Worth.

Depending on exactly where you are, you might as well just take it to Richey Collision. Top notch work and good people.
