Default Detailing/Painting

Anyone around the McKinney (or Dallas) area that can do some pretty good detailing and/or painting?

I just need a few areas touched up, mainly the front/rear bumpers, and other little spots...definitely not a show car but I'm scared to take sandpaper to it!

As for the paint, just looking for someone who could do a better job than me with a rattlecan I'm thinking about either going back to a Silver Berger panel, or going gloss black, need my SS spoiler painted Silver, headlight buckets glossy black, and roof top panel gloss black.
