the dinan service center next to BMW of Fairfax is good as well, they did work on my e34 and my 2002 and were very prompt/courteous.

There's a European only shop off Huntington Ave in Alexandria. He generally has about 3-5 E30s sitting there at any time. I spoke to him once, he seems very competent.
