if you want show winner, then dont limit yourself to your local area. The best in the business are often far and wide and when your spending best part of 10k anyway, whats a few hundred in transport costs?

go to the volksworld show, have a look at the show cars and find out who did the work, then go have a word with them and find out when they can fit you in. Expect to wait at least a year for the very best (unless you get lucky and grab a cancellation slot).

also - how long do you want it to stay a show winner

it's dead easy to get a vehicle ready to win one show - but then it rust out and bubbles up in a few months !

megga bucks for a propper job - so dont limit to area

only place i know is Retro Restorations at Hurley. mine was done up there by previous owner about 5 years ago. last time i went he had a 2 vans with exteria done and interia nearly done. both looked very nice! worth popping in for a look at what he's working on if you're not far from there.
