If you're looking for a good job at a fair price, contact New Image in Santa Ana. If you're willing to shell some dough, I have another shop in Lake Forest but the number is in my office. I can get it for you if you need it.

I'm a Senior-Level Instructional Designer of Technical Training at Kia Motors America. I've been factory trained by Chevrolet/GM, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Acura/Honda, and Lexus/Toyota. Does that help?

Also, I've built two complete cars and can help you with the process. Do you need just a simple paint job?

Basic with no prep ($700-$1000) - may have fisheyes/bubbles
Average with body/panel prep ($1600-$2300) - good but recommend color sanding
Good prep/graphics ($2300-$3500) - color sand
Excellent / Show ($4500-$7000) - perfect

I'll include my signature to show you what I've done so far...

That is a beautiful car!!! I've got my 69 painted and it looks great but your Camaro is outstanding! Where is 760 Area Code?

How much was that custom paint? Mine was $4200 and not even as clean.
