Default Recommendations on Body Shop in SoCal???

I'm in Los Angeles and want to have my Rieger V2 front bumper, ABT grill and numerous other items painted and installed. Most of these things have been sitting in my garage 8+ months.

I'm not looking for a "deal." I'm sick of "deals" that don't turn out right because they cut corners.

I want it done right the first time and I'm willing to pay a fair price.

Any suggestions? Who are the experts in getting such pieces to fit right and paint to match???Thanks.

Default Amato's in Sorrento Valley (San Diego). They repainted my TTqR after it was keyed extensively and

it came out looking better than when it was new. They deal with a lot of high end cars. Any wait you may experience is well worth it.
