Need good body shop in Brandon/Tampa Florida

I hate to do this, but I need to take my car in to get the rear driver's side quarter touched up and re clear coated. I got a nasty rock chip on the rear fender of my car on the way home from the dealership. 12 miles on the car at the time. It came from an overfilled rock truck about 50 yards in front of me on the interstate. Its a big chip, about 3/8" in diameter with a 1/2 inch trailing scratch behind it. It went all the way to the primer and is very noticeable. My attempt to fix with touch up paint/clearcoat have only made it worse (the clearcoat on these newer cars is VERY thin and 2000 grit sandpaper cuts through it easily). I've used a few shops around here for collision damage and the results were ok for my other vehicles, but I want this one to be done as near perfect as possible.

Any help would be appreciated.
