Paint shop recommendations for Bay Area?

I have a rksport spoiler that needs to be painted to match my black camaro, any recommendations for a good paint shop in the area?

Bertollis auto body did mine, they are right off the Richmond bridge in San Rafael.

I talk with one of their employees pretty regularly and they are all great people.

Not to mention the guy who does most of the body work is absolutely obsessed with making cars look and go fast. They took the MPD1 spoiler I had (also black) and spent a couple hours lightly sanding out some of the imperfections that would show up after paint.

They were a little pricey but they did an amazing job.

I think it was like 5-600$ to smooth out + paint + install.

That is the right Bay Area price, perhaps 100 less w/o install.

I was referred to G&M in san bruno by stewart chev. They handle all their paint/body so I assume they must be a top notch shop. Stopped by and talked with them today. Nice guys, I will let ya know how the spoiler/gfx turns out

The owner, Phil, awesome guy to work with and he helps you cut cost where ever he can. He's had to work on my SS a couple times and if it doesnt turn out right or if I'm not satisfied, he will redo the work until you are happy. My buddy takes his 69' Camaro to him all the time too. They do anything from body, paint, to mechanical and resto.

If you do go to him, tell him Hilton with the Dark Blue SS referred you.
