Default body shop in MD?

Does anyone know of a good body/paint shop in Maryland?
I live in Gaithersburg, and was interested in getting my 93z a new coat of paint....

I take my car to a place called Vince's Body Shop religiously. Though I am good friends with the owners family he cuts me a deal and they do great work. They do all of the ferrari's, benz's, and lambo's that Prestige Imports gets in. The shop is located right behind Prestige on Liberty Road headed away from the city.

I know of a great body shop in Damascus if you're willing to go that far. It's called Sam's Custom Auto Body and it's right by the Jimmie Cone in Damascus off Route 27 (not Mt. Airy). If you tell Mark I sent you, he'll give you his best price. He does not do Maaco work -- he uses PPG paints. He is getting a bake system installed in the next month or so - so if you can wait a little bit he'd be able to bake the paint on rather than have it air dry. Makes for a much tougher finish.

Anyway -- if you can see I am a newby to this site and don't want you to think I'm a spammer or anything, but he's repaired or pimped four of my five f-bodies and they are incredible. I toot a horn for his work whenever I get the chance. I have a post in the introduction site where you can see my cars or feel free to visit my cardomain site for many more pictures. Also, you can visit his website and take a look at the before/after pics -- www.samscustomautobody.com. Like I said, just tell him Laurie sent you and that I know you from the boards.
