Need a shop to build/weld in a cage

Title says it all, can anyone recommend me to a southern California shop near cypress (90630 area code)? I need to have a 8 point welded in or possibly custom fabricated if price is comparable and cannot seem to find one. If you have personal experience with a shop please speak up! Price estimates if you have them as well, I'm anticipating around 1 grand for material and labor.

I shot him an email and he asked me all the right questions and certainly knows his stuff. However, he quoted me 3 grand for a 8 point, which seems pretty overpriced. Considering you can buy an 8 point cage online and have it shipped for under 350, even if you have a professional welder weld it in you're only looking at 100 per point for a total of 800 for installation then the 350 for the cage shipped on top. Am I wrong to think 3 grand is overpriced?
