Default SAN DIEGO: Paint Shop Needed (PAINT MATCH)
Just wondering if anyone has had any good experiences with any paint shops in the San Diego area. I am only interested in paint match, no bodywork needed.

I have had good experiences with Phil Thearle's Autowerks in Santee.

They are the best (along with Amato's) in San Diego county.

However, they are pretty expensive and nit-picky though and sometimes hesitate to paint aftermarket goods. I had good luck with them re-painting the ACS kit on my old E36.

I heard Sinful Enhancments in Lemon Grove does a decent job on the cheap.

Ah, heard the same thing about both places. Coincidence? Hahaha.
