Lowering a G35 isnt rocket science..

Front 3 14mm bolts on the top hat
Bottom 1 17mm bolt on the lower control arm and 1 17mm for the sway bar
and 2 12mm bolts for the brake lines

Rear 1 17mm Bolt

If your lowering springs are short enough you wont even need a spring compressor.

I did mine myself with the help of the borrowed the spring compressor from autozone. I was able to do the rears in about 45minutes, the fronts were another story but I was able to finish it before bed time

i dont know about a 3hr job... and as for where to go, look for any shop with a lift and a mechanic with half a brain... i look mine to air ride shop up the street, they threw my s-techs on in a little under an hour and charged me $80

What about coilover installation? I just got a quote for $200. Is this a reasonable price?

If you find a smaller tuner shop any money they make on labor goes directly into the person doing the work's pocket (I'm talking a very small shop) - so they won't charge $100+/hr labor.

Think about working two hours and making $150 bucks. $75/hr is pretty damn good pay! F*ck the corporate car care places that rip you off for labor. You'd be better off approaching a mechanic working there personally and offering him $150 if he'll do the install. Although I'd prefer a shop so there is some sort of reputable business (not just an individual) behind the work
