Default Recommendations for a paint shop in Nashville TN

I need to get my bumper resprayed. I'm looking for reputable paint shops in the Nashville area. Money is certainly a consideration, but more importantly I'd like a quality paint job. Quick turnaround time would be a bonus as well, since this is my daily driver. So far I've gotten quotes from Paint and Body Perfectors off Nolensville Pk and Price's in Brentwood TN. I was left a little cold by Price's, so far I'm leaning towards Paint & Body Perfectors. I've worked with them in the past with excellent results (though never on a Porsche). P&BP use Sikkens paints, which from what I've read is a quality paint, but Porsche recommends Glasurit? Should I shop elsewhere?

Thanks in advance!

as a followup, I set an appointment with the shop that uses Sikkens. I'll post before / after photos when I'm done. Definitely planning to get a clear bra after this!

My car is arctic silver and paint match Is difficult. I need to get my bumper repainted. I’ll reach out to these guys and see what they can do.

a lot of local Porsche guys go here. They are very good at panel painting also

When it comes to body/paint work I call up my Porsche dealership and ask where they send their vehicles and thats where I go.
