I usually go to JT Autostyle for body work. They have a lot of ricey stuff, but their normal work is decent.

they charged me $548 total for bumper cover replacement/paint after an accident. I'm not sure if the accident had anything to do w/ the price, but you know; it's worth a shot.

btw, the shop is in San Gabriel (i think)
