Shops trying to rake me over the hot coals!

Getting crazy labor quotes to install Springs!!- compared to what Im reading here in these forums -$150? Are you kiddin' ?
first place said $400 w/o alignment!!! 2nd place 350. w/alignment. Two places said they don't install customer's own parts. One place said cant give quote have to "see" it. One place said wont install own springs but told me I can get Eibach's from them for $350. NOT including install costs(THANK YOU) :x :x

what types of places are you calling? mainstream? tuner shops?

Yea they are tryin to rape you. My cousin needs a new camber kit and they said 600 DOLLARS for the camber correction and 102 TO ALIGN. :shock: :shock: :shock:

One is a local mechanic at a gas station garage, another place is a muffler/shock shop, another is a "speed" shop, another is a general garage .... mostly mainsteam, not tuner ...

Do it yourself and then go for the alignment.

Whew ...Finally found a place for $150!!! ... after about 15 calls ... guess not everyone wants to rip me off ... its a tuner shop too ... guess we should support those guys!!!

It's pretty simple to do yourself... just need some time and a friend or two. Then that $150 goes to something else.
