For a true SHOW QUALITY paint job prepare to spend around 8-15k IMO, might want to rethink if you looking for a really nice paint job or truly something that is going to be a first place winner, big difference. My .02

I have a good friend that runs a body shop in shamokin dam (about 45 miles north of harrisburg)
Call and make sure you talk to Dave Aucker,
Tell him Jim Roy told you to call him. Dave used to do some really nice custom work, Don't know how much he actually paints himself any more but I know the guys that work for him are good and he will not let anything out of there that isn't done right. He most likely will not give you a firm price because of the type of work, unless its just a paint only. Also it is a collision shop so they may have other commitments,
be sure to ask about time frame. here is a link with the phone number ect.

True show, 100-point paint and body work is hellaciously expensive. Expect a bill in the $15k~$18k range, with no guaranteed fixed price at the onset of work.
