Quality body shops in the SF Bay Area East Bay
Looking to replace the standard black plastic rear bumper valance on my 2016 Macan S with a paintable rear bumper valance.
1. Know of any Porsche-quality body shops in the Tri-Valley or East Bay areas?
2. How easy is the removal of existing valance and the installation of new valance?
Any information would be appreciated. I made a big mistake of not ordering the painted exterior color rear bumper valance.

I used the guys at "S Car Go" in Mill Valley to do a few things. Including the removal and replacement of the rear valance for painting. But to be honest, they just took it to a shop down the road in Mill Valley. I could have probably taken it there myself and saved a few bucks. Pretty sure they took it to Miracle Auto Paint and they did a great job. Painting the valance pretty straightforward. FWIW, they sanded down my OEM unpainted and it looks fine.
I'll add that I thought I added the painted rear valance and was confused when ordering it. Soooo glad I got it painted. Looks much much better.

Would look better with a white bumper valance
