Good Paint & Body Shop in So. Cal?

I'm looking to purchase a hood and was looking to see if anyone can recommend a good paint and body shop in the LA/OC area?

Thanks in advance, once I find a decent quote from a reputable shop, I'll pull the trigger on the hood purchase!

Fabricante auto body in Lake Forest or Prestige auto collision in Mission Viejo. Both have expierience in heavy camaro collision repair as well as awesome paint work.
Prestige did my '10 SEMA Camaro and Fabricante is doing my '12 SEMA Camaro convertible. Both are owned by the same family, ask for Darryl at Prestige or Eric at Fabricante, been in business over 30 years, direct with most major insurance company's.

ed, where did you get that hood? that's the exact hood i want but i have only found two places that sell it. one place only sells it with a package that includes a bunch of stuff i don't want, the other place i have heard bad things about from members i trust.

also, did they fill in the mail slot or did you put a different front fascia on?

looks awesome!

The hood is from suncoast creations. It's the bumble bee hood with heat extractors. The front fascia is filled in. They cut the mail slot and then plastic welded back together. They did an awsome job.
