I don't really think there are any good cheap painters anywhere. If the painter is good, its gonna cost you more money. Just dish out the money and get it done right the first time...you'll be happier in the end. Also, when you parallel park try to find nice cars because they are more than lilkely not going back into you.

cheap!=quality
quality!=cheap

With paint, you always get what you pay for.

Also, I feel your pain with the parallel parkin.

I used to try that "find nice car" strategy but if you're staying somewhere for more than a few hours a crappy car could just pull in and scuff your *** before you even know it. So now I'm in the NYC area looking for a body shop that will do a good job for a good price. I got an estimate today for 900 dollars to fix the front bumper, rear bumper, and part of the top panel on the wheel well when some SUV scuffed me on a hit and run.
