Suspension a little off, need help finding shop

I was hit at the track a while ago on my left rear wheel. the strut and the hub was replaced and we assumed everything was good. Come to find out today that my rear left to is 15.1mm out. The aligment shop says its either the arm, the crossmember or the knuckle. Well, the evo has four arms and a crossmember. Can any of you reccomend a good shop I can take my car to diagnose the particular part that is bent? The current shop wants to shotgun the car with parts to solve the issue, but that could possibly be $1,500 in parts alone. I am in the Woodinville area and would like to stay around here if possible, but please dont limit recommendations just to around my area. I would be willing to drive to get a proper diagnoses. I refuse to take my car to the dealership. TIA

is there anything i can meassure or do to try and diagnose this in my own garage?

Try Omni Brake and Alignment in Kirkland. It is next to the Infinity dealership. They do VERY good work. Tell them Darren sent you.

Hmm Omni is pretty good. They are the ones who did my alignment for my coilovers. You might try Fordahl motorsports: http://www.fordahlmotorsports.com/contact.htm

I think Kyle R on here can speak for them.

i am sure omni does great aligments, but from my experience that is the extent of their capabilities. ask for anything more and you get a bunch of monkies running around flinging poo at each other.
