Has anyone had them installed at a infiniti dealership? and if so how much did they pay cause I think I am going to go that route but I don't want them to overcharge me, and is it an easy enough job to do in front of your garage with the right tools? Thank you

 

I'm guessing the dealership probably won't charge more than about $800.00...

You can get it done at most tire and allignment shops for probably $100-$150
plus $50 or so for the reallignment.

 

Since you lowered the car is the warranty still valid?

 

i was going to ask this question as well....

 

I've never heard of lowering a car to void the warranty. maybe on the shocks.

 

I've never heard of a dealership actually performing any modifications to your car themselves that is not an OEM modification or replacement. Your best bet is to post in your local regional forum on the board and ask those guys where they go to get their cars lowered. Changing your suspension will not void your warranty in anyway however if any part of your car was affected by the springs they will not cover their replacement for example if your CV Joints or shocks needed replacing within the warranty period you'll have to foot the bill for new ones.

 

I had called and they told me as long as the install them they will cover everything as long as they do all the work to the car. But its not a warranty issue its an issue of who does the best work and who should be trusted more. (infiniti, or some other shop)

 

Who would be more experienced is really a toss up. Peace of mind is very important so ask the dealership how many spring installs they have done before and someone in the Palm Beach area can point you in the right direction of a shop that specializes in suspension and alignments. A spring installation is 1 to 2 hours labor for an experience tech. I recommend you get the alignment a couple weeks later to give your springs a chance to settle

 

I would think a wheel and tire shop that installs lowering springs all day long would do a better job than an infiniti dealership which never does.

 

If you put on aftermarket rims is the warranty still valid? The aggresive offsets might cause your wheel bearing to go out

But no, the entire warranty on the car is not rendered null and void because you put on aftermarket rims, lowered the car an inch, or installed an aftermarket spoiler.

However, if the trunk lid rusts where you drilled the holes to mount an aftermarket spoiler, don't expect them to replace the waterstrained trunk carpet, if the aftermarket rim you have breaks and a piece of it knocks a hole in the rear qtr. panel, don't expect them to fix it, etc.
