Default Paint shop recommendations - Atlanta area

Anybody have some recommendations or know of places to get a nice re-paint. I just need the hood & front bumper repainted MRM (with it blended I suppose). Too many chips for my liking. It would make the car look 1000X better. I saw Buford Autoplaza mentioned before. Any others?

Thanks.

Has anyone had a hood/bumper repainted. What is the typical range of cost? Also, how long would this take them to complete? I assume this is a pay for what you get type service.

I've got a couple of personal friends who do DAMN GOOD body work. One guy owns his own shop and doesn't have anything big going on right now so you'd probably be first in line. Lemme know if you're interested.

Nichols paint and body in Roswell. Ask for Mike Canfield to paint it.
Old friend and an excellent painter.

Damian, PM me the name of shop and I'll look them up...

Maybe Krylon is what GMMG used when they painted the hood.
