I've been enquiring about suspension installation prices around where I live and so far the quotes given have been shocking to me (though I'm not familiar with averages.) I'm looking to install eibach sportline springs, tokico struts, and SPC front and rear camber kit on my 05 coupe. Anyone do this stuff on the side around the San Jose, CA area? I'm willing to pay of course, cash or beer depending on your preference

Diy. I followed the instructions on here and youtube and it took me approx 3 hours. And this was my first time, i saved like $200+

The rear is super easy, but the front takes more muscle and patiencr

^^ did you already have any mechanical experience? The most difficult DIY I've done so far is LEDs the DIY instructions and YouTube videos, were they instructions on installing all the things mentioned above at once? Im afraid of starting any DIY work, getting lost halfway through, then having my car sitting stranded in my garage.

It's pretty easy. There's not too much to do.

I have zero mechanical experience and the instructions were just for the springs. But once u take it apart, everything is simple. The reason i did it myself because my financial status isnt lookin so good at the moment lol. Mos places charge average $50-$60 per spring to install

But if u want more specific details on ur other parts, u can google up the instructioms for each individual part that u r tryin to replace, but u shudnt have to

The important thing is that u shudnt be afraid, just do it. Its going to feel really good once u have completed everything

^^ I'm going the easy route and having a local forum member install everything at a reasonable price, much cheaper than the shops. You guys had me feeling confident enough to do it, but in the end, my lazyness is the deciding factor...
