Default Body Shop in Orange County?

I'm looking for a shop to paint my car. Besides MobWorks, what other shops do you recommend with great prices? Hit me up here or IM. Thanks in advance!

How much does T&L usually charge for an inside/out color change w/ a few dents here and there on a civic coupe?

MV designs in Santa Ana, they have done several nsx's, including mine, and their work is top notch.

expensive is relative, I would rather pay more and have it done right, rather than pay less and have to redo it.

Perhaps give them a call and get a quote?

Yeah, I'd rather pay more to have it done right. I went to J&S in Covina like 6 years ago, and wasnt impressed with the price and the work they did (or didn't).

Okay, not looking for a show-stopping paint job, but not looking for Maaco either. Any other recommendations. Already talked to MV Designs and they do show cars and charge 10K for inside/out.

We had our shop car painted by wet works. It was just the mugen kit not the whole car. But still good quality.
