Paint in SoCal?

Looking to buy the m performance bumpers for my f30, and wanted to see if anyone had recommendations on paint shops in SoCal. It’s mineral white, and my fear is getting a really bad match.

How far are you willing to travel? Spectrum Collision in Irvine has done a great job matching mineral white (not easy due to metal flakes overtones) and glacier silver colors.

That’s not too bad. I’m in the Riverside area. Have you had anything done by them? (Trying to gauge pricing)

Spectrum in Irvine did good work on my 328i. McKenna BMW Collision Center did a great job on my M3's new front end.

I also recommend Jim East Auto Body and Shop in Orange as I have had a few things painted there if your looking for price comparisons.
