Need a very good bodyshop for paint-matching - 14y.o. pearl-yellow paint (bumper replacement). Want it to be spot-on, which isn't going to be easy with that paint. It's also an insurance job, so cost is less important.

I'm based in Stratford-upon-Avon, happy to travel c. 1 hour for somewhere worthwhile:-
- Warwickshire
- 'Greater Birmingham'
- most of Oxfordshire
- parts of Leicestershire
- parts of Northants
- parts of Worcs
- parts of Bucks

Done quite a bit of searching on here, and (in no order) the following have come up as recommended by various people. Can anyone comment either way on any of these, or suggest anyone else. Want to narrow it down to 2 or 3 to visit and get quotes from.

Bodymaster, Walford
C&N Customs, Oxon
Finishline, Hitchin (too far?)
PJB Motorbodies, B'ham
Bodytech, Earlswood, B'ham
Bodywork, Solihull
Silverstone Paint, Towcester
Paint Tec, N'ton
Elite, N'ton
Harlequin, Leics
Thurmaston, Leics
Selbys, Basford, N'ham
Stallion Automotive, N'ham
Jaytek Racing, Telford-ish?

Thanks both.

The other thread has come up with Greg Howell @ Southam Bodies, which has the advantage of being on my doorstep. Any thoughts?
