hey does anyone know of a good trusting shop were i can get my civic painted a pearl blue with lightning graphics on the side? (it won't be flashy just small)  

Lanzini is in the valley. I figure if they are good enough for Steve Strope's cars and some of Foose's they can paint your car. But they ain't cheap.  

check out Santini's in Orange County if you need to. Not cheap but he does bitchin work.
