I went to Bali last May, and I actually went around the various forums getting contacts of a local driver because I was trying to decompress from work, and didn't want the stress of having to arrange for a taxi from the airport when I arrive.
I managed to arrange for a local driver to pick me up from the airport (RP 170,000 but I tipped him extra) to my hotel in Nusa Dua. Also arranged with the same driver for a half-day customised tour + return to airport (same day) for RP 500,000. He was a very professional and friendly driver, and I was glad to have gone with him.
I'm not sure if I can post his website or email here, but I believe there are many other drivers like him around.
