Default Southern California Paint Shop

Anybody know of a good local shop to get my tank painted? I live in Buena Park and work in Gardena so somewhere in the general vicinity would be good.

I used Dirty Kustoms to get the tank painted back in June but I'm not going back there. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Kind of far for you...but worth it. Dave Little Designs, in Lancaster, does awesome work. The problem--other than the drive for you--is they're always busy. Might be a week, might be more to get it done.

There's an indie shop nearby in Gardena. Hudson Motorcycles on Rosecrans Avenue: http://www.hudsonmotorcycles.net/

Just discovered them a month ago to buy some stuff, and went there in person. I was impressed by how nice they were. We talked about getting my bike painted and some work done. Their price range sounded very reasonable. I've been looking for an indie shop in my area, and settled on going with these guys after my positive experience with them

Ask for Mark or David - if your experience is anything like mine you'll consider giving these guys a shot.

It's not local to you but take a look at http://www.vividdragon.com they do a great job and not bad on the price. Just won first place in a bike show with their paint job on my bike.

Thanks for the suggestions - I will check those places out.

I'm only going to either get the tank repainted (candy orange) or another basic one color paint job so it doesn't have to be a super duper fancy dancy custom paint shop. Someone who can do a solid job and stand behind their work is what I'm looking for.

I'd appreciate more input if you've got em.
