Yeah, I'd be interested to see how this turns out for you. After getting my hood paint cracked thanks to the shop that last had my car, I'm pretty much committed to getting my car painted sooner rather than later if I want to take it to any shows and not get laughed out of there.
I don't know if there is anyone competent locally, though....
Getting a crappy paint job on top of everything else would likely put me right over the edge.
