Where to paint in Chicago?
I got a holeless trunk coming and I need to get painted. Can someone recommend a good place in the Chicago area that doesn't charge an arm & leg?

Also, what should I expect to spend?


Thanks.

Boyal bodywerks in St Charles. is reasonable.
Or there is a place around the corner from them but don't remember the name.
Boyce Body Werks in Batavia.

Why would you be out the entire evo, if he just needs a secondary trunk painted?

It's a drive from Chicago, but EJ's Auto in McHenry. He did all of my custom work, from paint to body kit. This guy not only does flawless work at an incredibly cheap price, but he's also quick. You could probably drive back the next day to pick it up. This guy is seriously awesome. Check my profile to see some pics of his work. Good luck either way!
--Andy at EG's Auto: My stupid SIM card broke in my cell phone and I don't have his number right now. I'll edit this as soon as I get it.
