Alignment Shops, SGV, North OC, IE???

I live in Chino Hills and am looking for a good alignment shop sort of close to home. Anyone have a good recommendation? It's for a Boxster and if all goes well, then I'll take my Ferrari as well. Thanks.

(I've experienced Lucent and West End but am looking for a place closer to home.)

lol, I was going to recommend West End but you've already been there. A lot of my friends go to this guy: http://www.yelp.com/biz/jc-auto-house-temple-city

Other than that one bad review, everything else I've heard has been positive.

So you don't recommend Mckenna Porsche for alignment?

West End is worth the drive. You've been there so you know how good Darren is. He does everything by hand and eye per his experience which is more accurate than those alignment computers.

Darren has to be a legend. His name will come up on pretty much any forum.

Not sure of shops closer to your home, but a couple of other good reccomendations.

Erik Messley, EMI Racing in HB. Erik is a little under utilized for just an alignment, but your Ferarri would be set up perfectly by him.

Accurate Alignment in Orange is also very good.

Just as a heads up go to a local place and get an inital alignment settings print out on the car and what its doing.

Once you get that done go to the recommendation of members on the board who you think might be the best. With that part done take the print out to the shop you are going to use and give the person there the input you want the car to do.

Once the car is finished with the alignment then take it off and go for a drive about about 10 miles on it come back and check all of the alignment setting to make sure its all perfect.

good luck with it.
