Can anybody reccomend a painter/bodyshop for some minor paint?

We have a late arch on the N/S of our bus as well as 2 panels painted badly. I'm not looking for the dinks and imperfections to be hidden, as it'd look out of place with the rest of the bus...I'm just after paint to match up well with the old paint and maybe an original arch.

Its the two panels under the window...

Give midland paintwerks a call they are based in stone and the work is top notch :)

Cheers for the replys. I love the patina look, but these two panels really stand out. Was 9 hours into a night shift when I posted so just running through ideas

Cheers.

I was going to say that, I'd polish that within in an inch of ts life and then wax to death and have the most awesome OG Paint van.

Looks like this now. All polished up really well with the exception of the two n/s panels which are very matt.

use some wet/dry paper on it till its smooth then buff it up
