Default Need good fiberglass repair shop - gel coat DC/MD/NVA

Hello "Guys"

Posted this on the CACC forum too - thought I'd see if anyone here has any good recommendations:

You're SOOOO careful everywhere you drive the cobey - it finally happened - driving through a shopping center parking lot today (in crowded Rockville, MD) I came out of an aisle, with heavy sun in my eyes, and WHAM - right into the side of a car in the perpendicular drive lane. Caught my front over-rider on the rear wheel well of the other car - which shoved the over-rider sideways right into the fish-mouth. Mashed the fiberglass fish-mouth and bent the over-rider brackets right through their little holes.
SOOOO UPSET!
Needless to say - I need a good local fiberglass - gel coat shop. Anybody have any suggestions in the MD/DC/NVA area? My car is an Antique & Collectible with the gel coat finish. I wasn't really ready to paint the whole car yet - hoping I can find somebody to do the repair - somebody's got to know somebody - huh fellas? (I'm even thinking that even if the have to paint the repaired area - I may be able to have them mask off just the fishmouth area (about 1-2 inches back from the front) and have a "close match" do the trick; may even end up looking like one of those clear stone guard jobs.)
Who does the best gel-coat matching, fibreglass work in town???
Thanks in advance. . .
