yeah i quess but 300 is too much i think, charles at B2 is out of the country so no install can be done.

i decided to do it on my own , i have all the tools, I read the DIY and its not complicated at all just a little patience.

It takes a while to change springs all around. Although the job isn't difficult, it takes time. $300 isn't too bad.

ya if you can do it yourself then go for it. ive done it twice - my g35 and g37. rears are a piece of cake. fronts you'll need to rent an external spring compressor from autozone. sometimes helps to undo your calipers and zip tie them out of the way as well.

I was gonna say do the rears yourself then take it to the shop for the front and should only be like $100.
