Default Good paint shop in Tampa Bay area??

okay, i am not sure if i should post this here or not, but its here, feel free to move it if you wish. my question is where is a good place to get my car painted? i went to Lutz Land O' Lakes auto body and they quoted me a price of $3500-4500 to repaint my car white or change the color??!! now i know enough about body work to know that if you have to change the color of the car, that you have to paint door frames and engine bays and whatnot and that costs $$$ but if i just wanted the car repainted white again why the HELL would it be so much money?!?!!?!?

No one really can give you an exact price quote,they will have to look at your car and it goes on from there..
