Which paint shops do we like these days?

I need to take my car in for some minor insurance work on the front end. I've been putting it off for a while now. It went to Eurotech last time I was hit, and I was fairly happy with their paintwork, but it took a while.
I'm just curious if there are other options.
I'd be interested in hearing about your recent experiences with other shops. Please feel free to send a PM if you don't feel comfortable posting here.

Thanks,
Graham

Marv Engstrom of Magic Customs did a great job on Chris's SC a few years ago. He is great at dealing with the insurance companies as well. I would highly recomend him.

I've had work done on one of my other cars at Haurys in Lake City. They are a great place, highly recommended within the BMW community and are very focused on great quality work and customer service.

+3 for the three time my car has been fixed by Marv. His paint matching is awesome. He recently fixed my rear bumper and removed the sunroof. I can email you some pics if you'd like to see the sunroof removal before and after.
