Default Chicago paint job

I have a new unfinished fiberglass front fender for my '11 SuperGlide. I would like to get it painted Vivid Black, high gloss to match the rest of the bike.
Can anybody recommend a Chicago area painter that does great work at a good price?

My dealership sent me to a painter that can match HD colors...I know that denim is a secret bake recipe and quality matters more that cost due to his. No idea on the vivid black if that is the same case. If so, I suggest spending a few extra bucks to make sure u get a match. Where I live it costs between $250-300 for a fender.

As I recall the vivid black isn't a difficult paint to get your hands on. You or your body shop should also be able to obtain a pint of the paint directly from your dealer. Any quality body shop in your area should be able to spray that out without an issue. What's more important is the prep work and quality of the prep work on the new fender.
