Good place in the east bay that does hydro-dipping?

Anybody know of a good place in the east bay that does hydro-dipping (eq. Carbon Fiber look, then clear coat it).

Found Sign-Pro in Brent Wood but was hoping there's one closer.

Trying to get my shifter surround done as it's scratched quite a bit (cheap paint)..

i know someone who started doing it a couple months ago. she's done a few of her own pieces, but i'm not sure if she clear coats after.

edit: confirmed that she does clear coat.

Info plz.
And is it possible for body parts? Like a trunk lid or hood? Or just smaller things like dash plastics.

I just asked her if she does larger pieces. I'm just waiting on her reply. Here's a pic of her work for now.

She said she could, but she wants to practice on one. I don't think she's done something as large as a hood/trunk.

Perhaps you can suggest to her, to come on here, talk to us about her product, perhaps show some pics/web page of her work.

I am interested in getting some interior parts done.
