Best paint shop in So Cal?
Any referrals you can drop for me? I'm buying a car and need the front bumper done. Difficult color.

What color is it?
I've used East Auto Body in Orange on a 964 with good results. Shane fixed a subpar color match by one of the supposed p-car gurus in socal. Not a particularly daunting color but matching 25 year old original paint is not easy.
Ferrari of Newport Beach's body shop may be worth talking to if its a complex paint. I had them paint a euro spec bumper in very difficult quad stage metallic shade (where the car had already been to a couple other shops that tried and failed). They nailed it. Took two attempts but they honored the original estimate. They will work on other marques (plenty of GT cars).
Premier in Carson is also very good (and Dave's shop is truly state of the art), they mostly work on Ferrari and McLaren but have seen a longhood and newer GT cars there.
