Default Albuquerque Paint Job

I have orders to NM, and I'm looking for a good paint/body shop and an estimate for a paint job on a 98 Z28 in the Albuquerque area. Same color, minor dents on body.
It's gotta be less than where I am in CA... just a ballpark figure would help out a lot...

Ok, I have an unlimited budget. Are there no good paint shops in the area?

I don't have any personal experience on body shops around here. But I did a quick search on a RSW (a local car forum) and here's the results.

I haven't personally heard anything about the shops here (what's expensive/cheap, where not to go, etc), but that should get you started.

I can't wait to check Route 66 out. Thanks.
BTW I bought a 96 WS6 instead of the 98 Z...
