Repaint advice

When I bought my Aero I knew I would at least have to have the hood repainted due to all the stone chips, but later the car was egged. The egg caused permanent paint damage. I'll give color sanding a shot, but I'm pretty sure that there is no alternative for a repaint.
Any advice? My brother had his Jetta repainted at a Maaco and I think only spent about $750. He raves about how good it looks, thought that might not be the case a year from now. I know that the main thing is not to decide based only on price - all paint jobs of the same price are not equal regardless of the price, so I'll look for recommedations of shops in San Diego.
I'd be interested to know what others paid and what their results were, as well as any other general guidelines for increasing my chances of getting good results.
