Recommended Independent Service Shops in OC CA

Can anyone recommend a good independent service shop in Orange County CA. I am sick of the ‘stealerships’ and their lack of knowledge of anything outside the factory box. I have a heavily modified supercharged 02 Escalade that I would like to take in for service. The stealerships don't like to touch my vehicle because they don't want to be responsible for any damage to my aftermarket mods if and when the work on it. I am looking for someone/some shop that is willing and eager to work with me, Any recommendations?

Thanks
Richard

Good idea, but that shop does very little in house. They send it out to various shops and vendors depending on what needs to be fixed and then mark it up as their own work. Becomes very pricey very quick.
