i think you're one of the few people here in vegas. if you wanna drive to la or something i can help you out, only 4hrs away. just make sure you don't go anywhere cheap, find a place that does it right, the cheaper they are the lower quality you'll get.

Sometimes its good to ask locally where people are getting there paint jobs done. Anywhere you check into seeif they can provide you with pix of rides they have done so you can see and tell they do quality work and get what you will be paying for...

there are many good places that do custom piant jobs, but wont to body work to. so if you have to use two shops it may be costly. could be worth it, actually it really is worth it.

you can do lots of stuff ant not a sponsership. so that should mean anything no offence.
