After many years in the automotive business, these are some of the best B/S in the area.
Superior B/S on 49th st in PP is about the best in the area, if you can deal with Ron the owner, you get what you pay for.
Mirek's also does good work, just hard to understand the Rusky. But he is a good guy.
Northwest Collision, owner, Greg is a young guy and very good to deal with.
Harold's in St. Pete did my Challenger 6 years ago, and still looks awesome. Complete paint job cost me 3k at that time, all but underhood was done.

Alright, do not take your car to Randy aka Sebastian on here. Took an unthinkable about of time, did not wet sand the car, took pieces off windows and never replaced them and charged $200 more than quoted when I picked up the car. The car looks like it was painted 8-10 years ago, not less than 1. Absolutely no shine to it at all and I still have to buy $300 in parts that he removed/did not put back in place correctly. Friend had worse problems.

Randy had put a new rad. support on my civic, last night i got in a little fender bender and the support just caved in. Deff. unsafe. I would tell everyone to stay away from him. Plus my paint is chipping everywhere

+1 on AIRWIKS shop
1st off, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A GOOD/CHEAP PAINTJOB. If you want it done right, pay what it's worth and have it done once. The average full all over paint STARTS at 2k - and THAT is a super deal. anything less and you will have paint equivalent to WHITEOUT.
Stay away from sebastard, jim's bodyshop, wrex'n effects or whatever they are now....
ONLY garbage is produced there...
