Not exactly sure what you mean by "custom paint" but a good high-end paint and body shop is the Golden Hammer in West Los Angeles.

This was done by Eagleton's in Huntington Beach (next block over from Chip Foose).
You're looking at a $14K paint job including lots of body work,
and the custom cutting out of the coves and fiberglass hood insert.
The price was for the media blasting/stripping, bodywork, and paint only. It did not include any R&R that was done by Steve LuVisi of Automotive Expertise, across the street from Foose. Steve did the two Corvettes for Foose on Overhaulin'. When you rub the stripe, you can't feel the difference in the paint layers. This requires far more prep and effort.
