I've trolled through the older posts here asking the same question, but without much luck on finding someone.

Bobby Keith has pretty much shut down, kmgoakland was super nice but isn't taking customers and the guy she referred me to is booked for the rest of the summer and mostly does higher end Harley type jobs anyway. There is a guy who has a site and decent reviews in Pleasant Hill, but he doesn't respond to emails or voicemails so I'm assuming he doesn't actually do paint anymore.

Somebody is doing paint for AFM guys. Who?
 
There is a shop in Santa Rosa, believe the guys name is Ed Yost. He’s done work for Brendan Ketelsen and all of our bikes at Turn 3 Racing. Bitchin work and fairly priced.

Contact info for Mr Yost?
 
I just pinged Ed on FB, pointed him to this thread. I don't have contact info, but I've known him for for probably close to 30 years. Good dude and former AFMer.
 
Thanks mate! So, I checked FB and it appears that J & J Auto Body is his shop. Well, this would be just far too inconvenient for me, must be AT LEAST 1/2 mile from my house! 😁 I'll be looking for a painter in the spring but will check in well before that. Thanks again.

Yup, J&J is his shop. He just got back to me and said he still paints bikes, including Andrew Lee and Brenden Ketelsen as @Moto5150 said.
