You really need to look at the painter's work....ESPECIALLY is your having custom work done like pearls or airbrushing.

There are far more people that get pearls uneven and "streaky", then ones that get them right. Look around and ask people who painted a car you might like....then talk to the painter..ask him how many he's painted, what are the common problems with this type of paint job...and so forth...

I think the biggest thing i see with people asking for custom work on a daily driver is that they need to realize that some of the effects that they are after, are hard to spot fix if anything happens to them...i.e..getting keyed, a dent, a ding, chips...You can't just go in and spot a color back in with these effects and expect it to match exactly...it usually entails repainting the entire panel.
