Want to repaint my 2007 FJ

I was wondering if anyone in the local DC area has used a company to repaint their FJ. I would like a professional job completed (as close to factory paint as possible). Is there anywhere that you would recommend? I know that it is blasphemy to the Hardcore FJ lovers... but I am thinking a all over Pink including the interior. I live in Sterling, VA and am looking for a place in the VA / MD / DC area. Thanks for your help!

If you do find someone to do it, don't tell my wife - she'll want to do it as well.

I don't know of any paint shops in Sterling but some of the VA folks probably do. I have had paint work done by Zamora's in Rockville I was happy with. http://www.zamorasautobody.com/

Please post up pictures once you paint it.

John, what did you have painted there? I've watched Zamora's grow from a single stall in that building to the entire building over the years. He's gotta be good just based on that.

We have had the Honda repaired and painted two or three times now by them. I found them years ago when a co-worker who is good friends with one of the owners told me about them when we needed some body work done.
