Default Good paint shop in VA Beach?

Does anyone have any experience with any paint shops around here?
I'm almost ready to have my new front bumper repainted (It's not on the car yet), it just needs a little more sanding, so I thought i'd start researching. I don't want to spend any more than $150, but preferably in the range of $50. None of that Maaco or equivalent crap either. It just needs to be primed (special for urethane?) and painted black with a clearcoat, but must be professional quality.
Any suggestions?
Thanks...

Nope, just prime and paint w/clearcoat, i'm taking care of the prep.
I said I would prefer to spend no more than $50 (who wouldn't want to pay less?), but I also said I will pay $150, which sounds more feasible to me. Am I even in the ballpark? It's just a front bumper (cover). If it'll be alot more, i'll just prime it myself (special for urethane?), and i'll have to settle for Maaco (and tell them there better not be runs/etc).

Oh, well in that case, would he guarantee the paint would last a while? (As in, not flake off and stuff, but obviously not counting rock chips and such)
Is that with primer/paint/clearcoat included?
Lemme know hahaha.
