Recommendatitons for Touch-up, Paint Work in Southern California?

Anybody in SoCal recommend a body shop (or solo pro), who's good and relatively cheap, to do some very light, touch-up paint work? My TSX got mildly rear-ended and has a couple of chips and scratches, though no dents. First estimate was $300 to re-spray the whole rear bumper. I thought, no way! Any leads would be appreciated.

Wow, what a thread resurrection! Needless to say, I did get my bumper fixed by now. I went to Union Auto Body in Azusa. 753 1/2 E Arrow Hwy Azusa, CA 91702-5803 (626) 915-8989. They were the only one that I found willing to do spot repair and not re-paint the whole bumper. It was good work. Not noticeably different from the original paint, unless you are looking hard for it. Only charged $150.

I don't know how far you are from L.A., but I've always used Canoga Auto Body in Canoga Park. They do some amazing work.

Thanks for the recommendation. I actually live by the South Bay but I am willing to drive for quality work.

Thanks for the reply. How long did your car stay at the shop to get repaired?

Dropped it off in the morning, and it was ready by the next afternoon at 4pm.
