Painting a Bug in the Bay Area, CA

Hi All,

I'm hoping that some of you guys in the Bay Area will know of a paint and body shop that does good work without breaking the bank. I would like to get the bug painted while the weather is dry. By the way, it's a '70 type I in the original color of Yukon Yellow. I plan on having it resprayed in the same color.

Thanks

Call bugformance and peninsula auto see what they suggest. Maybe some shops in Santa Cruze. Auto repairs labor seems to be a lot cheaper over the hill compared to SJ area, not sure if it's true with paint shops.

As far as paint goes, most of the shops charge arm in a leg because of having to remove all trim, lights and etc. I've seen some nice paint jobs done for a couple hundred, but owners did most of the prep work and removal/replacement of the lights windows and etc. as well as wetsanding and polishing after words.

Good luck, Anton
