Ohlins rebuild?

Im looking to get my ohlins rebuilt and revalved. I've had them on my car for around 20k miles and I think its time for a refresh (as stated by the ohlins service manual). Can anyone reccomend a shop in the socal area that can perform this job? I know of 3DM motorsports but i'd prefer to just bring my car in for the service rather than swapping back to the oem suspension or leaving my car up on jacks.

Might be tough - they usually get sent off to Ohlins (think they're in NC) - once there it usually takes 2-3 day turnaround. Some places might have the parts but know your car will sit for a day or two while they work on it.
I'm getting mine serviced/revalved and they want 3 days (I'm not in the US though)

3DM is great for sure—as you've seen in many posts on this board. If it's easier, Brenner Shocks is located in Southern California and only does Öhlins sales and service.
