    Does anyone know a shop that does an excellent job on color matching? I am close to buying a car that is rosso corsa boxer paint scheme and i want the lower black boxer portion red.

    I don't know anyone in Mass, but I do have a painter in CT. He does absolutely amazing work! I have done some photographs for some of the airbrush things he has done, but he als does regular painting and is a perfectionist! The name is explicit airbrush. The owner's name is Jamie, great guy. If you want to see some of the stuff he does, go to my webpage, www.mcovephoto.com and look at the Yamaha Halo Bike and the Explicit 350Z. He also has a website too at www.explicitairbrush.com. He has done some work for celebrities as well so, he is definitely worth the trip to CT. Let me know if you need any other info!

    I send all of my detailing clients to Julian at Sublime Restorations in Rowley, MA

    If you give him a call, tell him that Rick @ Unique Car Care referred you. http://sublimerestorations.com/

    He does absolutely phenominal work. I have also heard great things about Dick's Auto Body and Sansossio's, but have not seen their work in person.

    I use Thunder Road in Dunstable,MA, he's meticulous on fine details.

    A friend of mine had him respray his 308 last summer, you wouldn't believe how deep & wet the color is!

    They do a lot of competition show cars as well as restorations & custom cars.

    It's a small shop on private property, so their rates are very competetive!

    http://www.scuderiadonati.com/ Roberto Donati does excellent work - he's ex Paul Russell. Obviously Paul Russell do awesome work but really high end stuff. Roberto isn't cheap, but has done good work for me in the past.

    How about using one of these shops for paint chip touch up? Can shops do that for you?

    I agree!

    Julian at Sublime does spectacular work. He has called me in to do some of the final polishing on select cars just to make sure the cars look their best. I get to see and work on some of his finished projects and their work is superb! Just the fact that he has me come in and polish and perfect the final work on certain cars says a lot about his quality.

    I'm that friend. Dan at Thunder Road took the time to do the respray correctly, and he did an awesome job at a fair price. He actually went over budget by about 10% getting it done right, but he suck to his quote and I didn't pay a penny more than his original estimate.

    I've got a Triumph I'll need repainted eventually, and I wouldn't take it to anybody else after the job he did on my 308.
