Default looking for a new paint job in So CAL?? where should i go? prices??

i'm going be getting my car painted as soon as i get a feel for what shops are around here in So CAL..i'm in Long Beach so pretty much anywhere from LA to Orange County is fine for me.

i'm looking for a decent shop, i'm not looking for anything special cause i'm just want my car as close to OEM white as possible, however i do want my mouldings painted as well...

so which shops would you reccomend? and how are their pricing? also curious if any shops would allow me to supply the paint while they do the rest of the work?? please let me know and keep in mind i'm looking for something under $600....oh and i already know about Earl Scheib and Maaco.

Spend the extra money and go to M-1 Autobody in El Monte. They do everything right, they work fast, and they are very helpful.

Don't go to Body Pros, unless you dont want your car back for about a year..... they lag hardcore...
