Default Reputable installers in Los Angeles/Orange County area?

I need to get some new shocks installed. What are some good reputable installers in the Los Angeles/Orange County, CA area to get them installed? Also, how much should I expect them to charge for standard stock installation?

I would do these myself, but after installing my camber kit, I'm not so sure I want to go thru that trouble again. I rather pay someone to do it. heh

Thanks.

$152.00/eac + $75.00 install fee = $683.00 for Koni Yellow. Unless they can hook me up with a lower price then I'll get it from them. in diabloautosports koni yellows $495.00/set of 4 then go to Tran Precision in Rosemead (ASE Certified at least) for $75.00 install fee...you save $100.00!

If you have all the right tools (which isn't that much)...the installation would be cake.

I got my shocks and springs installed there too for $75. I bought the shocks from them also. They're pretty good, they just didn't torque everything to spec . I try to do all my stuff now myself. And if i can't do it myself i go here for suspension and brakes stuff...

I walked in onetime to get a Koni Yellow shocks from them but seems like everybody is BZ with their own world and no one even bother asking me "can I help you with anything...?" I'm sure they're pretty good in what they do but first impression lasts...not good customer service skills...I just walked away and thought they dont wanna do any business with me...oh well

I thought they just didn't like me...now it all goes for the rest of the customers or maybe they just wanna work on their own cars and their circle of friends?! I think autosonic has a better customer service?! they installed the parts that I wanted from autolink, no remorse as of yet

edit:

call Tran's Precision Auto in Rosemead also if u do not agree with Autosonic's price.
tell Tran's Auto that the owner of the GREEN INTEGRA with body kit referred you ( I dont know if you are going to get a discount but it's worth a try) I was just there a week ago and they performed a major tune up for my GS-R. there's only two of them in the shop, twin viet broda
