Recommendations for paintwork
I'm looking to get some painting done on my car. The usual. Front bumper needs repainting and the sideskirts. I'd like to add an aftermarket hood and rear bumper.
Where do you guys recommend going in the Portland area?
What can I expect to pay for a good quality paintjob for a single hood for example, or even a fullbody paintjob?
I've called a few places and they all quoted roughly the same thing. I've been told this is really high.

I was once referred to BelRed Auto by a good friend at Park Place. He said they are the ones that do any paint work for them. If it was good enough for them I figured they would be good enough for me. I was not dissappointed either. Highly recommended.

I hit a deer with mine and took it to Northwest Autobody Also had some track damage which Raymond also fixed. Was very pleased with it and the price was reasonable. Drop by and I think you will be happy with what you see there

Car is being buffed/polished in my garage right now. Soon as I am finished I will take it over there and see what they have to say.

i live in vancouver, got my c3 painted a couple months ago by my brother in law (he owns a small shop that he and his brother work in). if you're interested, you can stop by and see the paintjob (the car's not done yet 
)and i can give you his number. i live basically on mill plain and 164th (2 blocks from there) so we can meet up for like coffee or something but his prices are definitely very good (for you) and his work is great as well
