Default Fiberglass craftsman needed in SF Bay Area/NorCal

I have an RV10 that has spinner to cowling contact. It is not due to sag but due to an initial construction mistake of not allowing enough room between the spinner and cowling. I am looking for someone (ideally, close to KRHV) with the skills to add multiple layers of fiberglass to the backside of the spinner flange on both the upper and lower cowling and then remove enough material from the front side of the cowl to provide a 1/4 inch gap between my spinner and my cowling. Sand, prime and paint to match.

Moderator, please move it to a different group if appropriate.

Thanks.
