Default Parts coming in, now where to install?

Car has 102k miles, and the clutch is pretty much on the verge of going. Have to drive it gingerly in order to be drivable. Any heavy load, and the clutch will start slipping. Originally was going to go for the fidanza flywheel, f sport shifter, and spec 2 clutch, but after reading through a few threads, it appears that there will be some increased chatter, and possible increased wear on the transmission. The car is mainly used for commuting, with some mild spirited driving (also it's my wife's car mainly). As a result, I opted to just go with the F Sport clutch, and F Sport shifter, instead.

Currently we are located around Irvine. Any recommendations for shops to do clutch jobs that give reasonable rates? Thank you in advance.

I had them replace my clutch about 3 years back. Next month the car lost 1 qt of oil, they were supposed to replace the rear main seal too. Don't recommend them.
