Default body shops west of Orlando

Does anyone know of a body shop west of Orlando? Most places I check with only do repairs and not a complete body repaint. I'm in the Clermont area just of hwy 27.

Clermont... love the area. Especially the backwoods, 2 lane drive north and east of the Citrus Tower, then up around Howie-In-the-Hills. Or south thru the Green Swamp and Lakes. You live in a cool part of Florida, but you can keep everything to the east !

I have a friend in Ft. Lauderdale if you care to drive that far. He is a phenomenal painter and does race cars ( high end stuff ), as well as actually IS a painter; as in Artist.

I also have a friend not far from you who is a mechanic on Porsches and may be able to get you in touch with folks in your area that paint. I can give you their contact info via Facebook if you wish. They are both great guys

(In fact, I bought a few new cars from one of your larger dealerships in Clermont. If need be, I may also recommend speaking with one of their top Salesman, the guy I dealt with, as to leads in your area for full paint body shops ..... Scott is a gearhead and drives a new Maserati. He walks in our shoes relating to our 'needs' )

The contact info would be good. I don't do facebook but an IM on this website would be appreciated. I moved up here last June from Cape Coral and couldn't be happier.
