Looking for recommendations for an honest and good independent shop in San Diego - really for a r53 Mini, but I figure that any shop that makes a ZHP guy happy would be close enough. If this is not the right place to post this, please move it there.

Sadly, that’s who I was using. They are very nice people, but I had a bad experience. I am looking for a new shop.
That's a drag. I trust you discussed the issue with them?

Thanks - and I did speak with La Jolla Independent. I am in NY, and my daughter has the R53. They did work, she said it felt wrong, the issue was not discovered / understood. I flew out, and did the diagnosis - fix. We spoke afterwards as well. If I was in San Diego, not NY, this might end differently.

You're lucky - there are fewer & fewer shops willing to use owner-supplied parts, even when good quality. They miss an opportunity to sell you parts & have to assume liability for a "dead out of the box" part.
