Default Respray front bumper

I spent yesterday afternoon washing and clay baring the S. Then I started polishing it. I seem to have a few problems on the paint that I am trying to correct this week (Gotta look good for the Palmer meet on Saturday, you know). Anyway, the front bumper cover is well beyond correction. It will need some sanding and a respray. Can anyone recommend someone in eastern Mass, preferably in the south shore, south east, western suburbs or Boston area? Most body shops just want to do big collision jobs and get paid by the insurance company. I'm looking for someone that will take a small job seriously and get it done quickly. I can remove the cover myself and drop it off, but I don't feel like waiting for a month to get it back.

Thanks for the tip. I gave them call today but no one answered. Maybe it was too late in the day.

+1 for Sansossio's
However, I last used them about 25 years ago....
Reaching back into the memory bank, I believe Phil was the owner, and a friend I went to college with worked there (Ed).
Quality work in the 90's....

Filipo used to be the owner, his son (Phil) has now taken over the business. He does a lot less insurance work now and focuses mainly specialty vehicles. Phil used to race BMWs and is pretty well known in the car scene around MA.

Not sure what color your car is, but color match may be an issue. Had a silverstone front bumper cover resprayed a few years ago with paint that I supplied from a local auto body supply store. The shop did a nice job, but the color was off a little and it was noticeable. The shop wanted me to bring the whole car and spray the fenders and hood to blend in the same paint as the bumper. I found another cover with OEM paint that was a better match and put that on the car.
