Where Should I Take My BRZ for 30k Major Service? (SGV Area Preferably?)

My Beerzy, is nearly ready for it's first major service. Would it be a good idea to take to a dealer or a shop?
I tried to compare prices with two dealers by email asking how much it would cost for 30k service on a 2013 BRZ (Sierra Subaru and Puente Hills Subaru). Sierra quickly quoted me $450 while Puente Hills contacted me with multiple emails wanting my phone number instead of just being to the point and just give me a price. -__-
Anyone got theirs done in those dealers or if not, where did you get it done?
If you don't mind letting me know around how much it cost or if they did a good job, please do. Thanks!

Call evasive motorsports their 30k service is less than 450. I wouldn't trust a dealer with my car.

Yeah, any qualified shop you trust can do this, doesn't have to be a dealership. Just keep receipts on file if you do it yourself or use 3rd party.
