Looking For: Shop(s) in Sacto Area

Hey all...

I'm looking to clean up my cars here in the next few months. Just for future reference, can anyone suggest the names/locations of reputable shops that provide the following services:

1. Paint removal from trim (ie: painted roofracks/painted trim under windows, etc)

2. Powdercoating for rims

3. Custom vinyl design and application

4. Professional quality paint (ie: not the $299.99 paint job at Maaco)

Again, I'm looking for reputable shops that you, yourself, have taken your car(s) to and been pleased with the results. I don't want to drop too much cash, but I don't want the job to be too cheap either. I also want to make sure that any car we take to the shop will be secure and looked after.

So how about it... any suggestions?

Contacted a shop in Stockton (re: powder coating) and nearly died from sticker shock.

They want $150 ea. for alloy rims and $55 ea. for steelies.

Needless to say, I'm still shopping around.
