The front camber plates are easy...

the front bar is more complex, k-huevo just posted a "how-to" here. These are both doable in your driveway.

Other than that, I'm in NorCal, so someone else will have to chime in on shops near where you live.

Matt at Central Coast Coopers is a suspension expert. He installed my Koni FSDs. Scott, the owner drives a MCS and has tried various strut / spring combinations on his own car. Give Scott a call.

+1 for Central Coast Coopers.
Scott installed my Ireland Engineering fixed camber plates. Plus, he'll direct you where to get an alignment afterwards.

Clarks House of Suspension in Lake Forest - Absolutely first class work. He sounds a bit grumpy on the phone, but does a brilliant job!

Another vote for Steve's. Did both my cars and a bunch of friends and a ton of people I don't know. Not a single complaint (from me that is).
