Paint places around Sacramento
I've been looking for a used front bumper cover for the wagon from just about Day 1 to no avail. So I resigned myself to the fact that I will have to buy an unpainted OEM one and have it painted. Then I got the bug, pun slightly intended, to do a sedan conversion since it'll need to go paint anyway.
In any event, I will need to get 1 or 3 pieces painted and blended. The guy I normally go to wants $400 to paint and blend JUST the front cover, and just about $1000 to paint and blend the cover and 2 fenders. Thus, prompting me to shop around. I'm all for doing things right, but surely this can be done correctly for less than $2000.
I've seen Endless' name thrown into the ring a few times in my searching. Anyone else have another suggestion? Perhaps one with a wink and a nod i-club discount?

Side note: should anyone wish to do a FMIC and is wary of cutting their front bumper, mine is already cut and in very good condition. Swapping, with a few beers, is an option I'm not unopposed to.

Ed @ Endless Autobody in Sac. Great prices and great quality of work, he's done subies before so I'm sure he'll take that into account. A good rule of thumb is $300 per panel just fyi.

Try Thompsons S&S Collision Repair on Auburn and Manzanita. Ron is one of the owners and he deals with more of the one off stuff. Real good place, not sure what they would charge, but give them a shot.

I prefer Bertoluccis..
I personally paint and do body work on the side at times. Mostly race bodywork and the like - but I know how to lay down paint and how to detail properly..
I've had work done there a few times and I and always been pretty pleased with the results..
Well minus the water based paints.. But thats thanks to Commiefornia.. But the work has been top notch and even the advice they give is pretty spot on.. Plus they guarantee their work for life.. So if you spot a sag or run you hadn't noticed down the road they will correct it..
