Default Shops in LA or Orange County for Exhaust Install?

Hey guys, trying to locate a shop in LA County or Orange County that does quality work for an inexpensive price.

So far I've gotten quotes from Impex for $60 & street image for $100 (which is approaching dealer level pricing ). Anyone else that can recommend other good reputable shops?

Top Speed Pro-1 exhaust, no y-pipe to change out yet just a cat-back.

$100 is our standard price for catback exhausts.

$60 is for mufflers only...

Raise the car, place jack stands, proceed with removing bolts & hangers (WD40 is a must). Place new exhaust in reverse order with new gaskets! Most of the bolts are the same size and your car is fairly new so they should come off easy!

It's that simple!!! That will $20 ...you can send payment via paypal!

$300? That's pretty cheap for labor. Doesn't it usually take like 10hrs to do headers?

Impex just did one of my friends Z. It took them about 6 hours...
Plenum spacer, heatwrap headers, and install headers and test pipes. And I think the total install was $380, and heatwrapping for another $100 or something.

I had the exact same exhaust installed at Super Autobacs in Stanton for 50 bux.
1 Week later, I decided it was way too loud and removed it costing me 50 bux again.
I love wasting money on my Z....
