Shannon Auto Body in Gaithersburg, MD... they did the work on my old 92 Integra GSR, and it was immaculate. Pristine. Beautiful. Flawless. BUT - I've heard that they are a bit pricey compared to other body shops. I guess you pay for what you get... but they do sometimes have "specials" on a certain color they have too much of, etc. And their prices on full paint jobs I found quite reasonable. I don't have their card anymore, but they have a website - do a search for "Shannon Auto Body" and it'll come up. They have a feature where you can track your car's progress on the net as they complete the work - very cool. They are also excruciatingly honest, which is a big plus. A couple doors down from that is a sad mod shop with lots of neon in the window. They work mostly on trucks... literally, pickup trucks... but they carry lots of Momo gear and other stuff.

Farther North is Restivo Auto Body in Eldersburg, MD. They are also honest and very competant. Maybe not the "artisans" that Shannon is, but still very good.

My maintanence shop, Motor-Works of Rockville, can recommend a good Honda/Acura paint place... they are at 301-424-2800. They're open Monday-Thursday...

I'll ask around, and keep thinking, but those are my prelimary answers.
