Chicago area body shop recommendation for Individual Color

Today my son tried to get around another car in our driveway with my Fashion Gray M4 and had a fender bender. Luckily the other car is a well worn 2002 X5 with over 200K miles.
Anyway....I'd like a recommendation for a top quality shop that can match the paint. When I first got the car I tried to order touch up paint but no one, including Patrick and Knauz body shops could come up with a formula, so I'm concerned about that.

Been a while since I used them, but I had good experiences at Euro Collision: http://www.ecchicago.com/

Definitely A&L Autobody. I live in the south burbs, about 45 min from A&L, and I still take all my cars there that need repair.

One of the guys who started IND, it's his families bodyshop.

Thanks for all the input. I had the car repaired at The Last Detail in North Chicago.
