best way from FAA CPL to JAA fATPL

Now, just to make it clear. I did make a good research before asking here And I did search forum for subj.

My question is, what is the best way to convert from FAA CPL to JAA fATPL.
The major factor is QUALITY of school/instructors and then of course cost at the school.

I want to do "residential course"
I have only 140hr, so I gonna need to fly 60 hours of flying.
I gonna need ME as well.

My est. cost to do it in US (OFT) is around 27.000$. That include ground, flight training, IR training and flying in UK, all written exams and skill tests, housing, visa and flight tickets to US. The only thing Im not sure about, where its include ME or not. So, total would be 27-30k$ or 18-19.000£.

Does anyone of you have price and conversion, if I have to do it in UK or Swiss?
And I would like to hear your opinions on schools/quality.
As for OFT, I heard some bad stuff and some good. I made my mind, thats its a quite good for ATPL conversion.

I gonna do some more research on schools at US and post it here. But for now, please, if anyone have experience for conversion in UK, swiss or somewhere else, share them, with prices and everything
Cheers!
