Default OT: Any "MUST SEE" shops in Orange County area???

I am going to be in S. CAL for the next week (Dana Point/Laguna) and would like to stop into some local shops there. Are there any MUST SEE shops there?

Thanks.

ANDIAL was actually located in Santa Ana, just off Harbor Blvd. ANDIAL as we knew it is gone. That same building in Santa Ana is now used as the headquarters for Porsche Motorsport North America. Dieter Inzenhoffer (the DI in ANDIAL) has a new facility in Fountain Valley where he runs the parts business and does some, but limited, special projects. He is still using the ANDIAL name.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I ended up not having as much time as I had hoped and only made it to Vision Motorsports. Man what a damn nice guy Dewain is there. He showed me around the shop and talked my ear off for an hour and even tossed me 2 free T-shirts as I was leaving. If anyone needs their car looked at I'd say you are in good hands at Vision Motorsports.

Maybe next time down I'll check out some of the others. Had a blast in Laguna and the weather was kick a**
