My Camaro's rear end feels loose – any good places to check?

I've had my 2018 SS for about three years now and absolutely love the thing, but lately I've noticed the rear end feels kinda squirrely when I hit bumps mid-corner, almost like the back wants to step out even at normal speeds which is not exactly confidence inspiring. I'm pretty sure the original shocks are getting tired because it's done about 90,000 kms mostly on these less-than-perfect roads around Dubai South and the industrial areas, and honestly the ride has gone from firm but controlled to just plain harsh over the last few months. I've been considering upgrading to some aftermarket performance shocks anyway since I do the occasional track day at Yas, but I also don't want to ruin the daily drivability because this is my only car and I use it for everything. The problem is I don't really know which shops around here actually have experience with the Camaro's suspension geometry because it's not as common as the Mustangs and Chargers you see everywhere. A mate suggested I look for a proper Camaro shock absorber replacement garage in Dubai, but when I asked for the name he just shrugged and said he'd heard it from someone else, so now I'm stuck scrolling through reviews and trying to separate the genuine places from the ones that just claim they can do it. Has anyone here actually had their Camaro's shocks done locally and been happy with the results?
