arachnology - What species is this large-ish spider?

Last night I came across this spider outside my house (costal Southern California). It was bigger than any I'd seen before, about 2.5 or maybe 3 inch legspan, maybe just under an inch for the body length. It is a brown-gray color, the cephalothorax has two dark brown stripes, and some mean looking fangs. Can anyone identify it?
