Default Jax Paint shops

Any recommendations guys?

Ive heard Fleming island does good work. Im not able to go drive around and check the shops out, so I need your opinions..

Im trying to set it up so I can get my camaro in the booth the week I get home from Iraq.

Any board members work in a paint shop?

Any and all is appreciated!!

Not sure how far Green Cove is from you but I had my Nova recently painted at a place called Darrens Custom. Guy is a drag racer with a beautiful '57 Chevy and he does good work. Just an alternative.

That's where the car currently is. I can vouch for Darren's work also. His shop is right down the street from Jason's too behind Wallgreens. It takes about three minutes at the most.

That 57 is bad ***. Darren got it tuned at the shop and it put down 623 rwhp on motor. That's easily the loudest car I've ever heard. I wish I had my camera that day. The only picture of it is the engine.

Yep, and that car went 9.70's a few weeks back at 3400+ lbs. He's a stickler for nice work at a fair price which is why my car went to him for the paintwork.
