I'm in NorCal, so I can't recommend a specific shop for you in SoCal, but I've had my Boxster smogged twice and both times they never opened a trunk or asked to see the motor. They didn't inspect underneath the car either with mirrors, etc. Obviously some shops are just more easy going than others.

There HAS TO BE someplace in SoCal that will pass just about anything. Take a look at ANY of your tuner mags. "Modified", "Euro Tuner", "D Sport", etc. are tuner mags full of highly modified cars and many, if not most, of them seem to come from SoCal. How the heck they get those things street legal is completely beyond me, but they MUST be plugged into a smog shop that will pass anything - even if the engine bay is readily visible.
