Default Details?

If you are a "details" kind of person, I would stay away. Minor overspray, poor masking, and poor prep are things you might be looking at at those "volume" paint shops. Have them show you a random specimen of their work.
Get their best estimate and take it too a custom shop and have them show you their finished product.
Either way, let them know how serious you are about a quality job.
Good luck.
My paint job cost 2k, with several hours of body work and a luggage rack delete. Bare metal sand-down, 3 coats of factory scarlet red and I still find little things that piss me off.
