Best BodyShop in the OC?

Hey guys, I just got my trunk and Roof spoiler and im looking for a shop to get it put on for me, im in the orange county area. Do you guys have any suggestions to where i should go to get it installed? i know alot of ppl do it themselves but i dont trust myself to put it on right, or do the right things to keep it in place. Thanks!

Spectrum Collision is really good, they are in Irvine and are mainly a BMW shop but they did an awesome job fixing some damage caused by a valet and I could not tell it had been worked on. They are a little slow but the wait is worth it. I dealt with Gary Janzen there and I feel he did a good job keeping me informed.

I'll do it for you for 15% less than whatever your lowest body shop quote lol

Or if you really want a brick and morter shop, take it to HMS in Westminster or Heyvon in Huntington
