Not a hot rod, but an old Mercedes that I would want to have entirely repainted in what I would call factory plus paintjob. I would want the original color EXACTLY (well...as best as can be done with the new water based paints we have to use) and thicker clear coat than factory and more gloss to it, but this will be a daily driver so I wouldn't want to waste a show car paintjob on it.

Does anybody have any recommendations for body shops in the Charlotte, NC area (I'm 20 miles North of downtown, but anywhere within 50 miles of harlotte pretty much is good with me, or further if it's worth it)? I've heard Caldwell Collision, anybody have any thoughts on them?

I apologize if this is the wrong forum, but from what I could tell it is the best fit.

Thanks,
Richard
