I paid $150 for my Eibach camber kit installation with toe bolts at Agundi's Tire shop. Not sure if it was a hook up price but it came with alignment also. Took about 3 hours with appointment.

They said $150 to put on the springs, and didn't tell me how much the camber kit would be they said "well we really have to look at the kit before we can give you a price" and I asked, how much they usually charge and he said "it really depends". So I was trying to find nearby places that do a good job and don't break the bank.

Thanks for the info, looks like they have good reviews. I'm going to call them and see what their prices are. I don't really care if they take a long time, as long as they do a good job, but I read they have fast service, which is always a plus.

I can vouch for The Shop as I'm good friend's with the owner. Once I have enough money, I'm having them do a 6-speed swap for my maxima.

I've known Matthel, the owner of The Shop for ages. I bring my car to his place for all services and installations (including my rear SPC camber/toe kit). No request is too much and they do good work. Moreover, it's a friendly place.

Yeah, they moved to a bigger and better shop by Jack In The Box on Sneath Lane. They can do more than mount tires now.

Yeah I checked the place out today, seemed nice. There was a black challenger shopping for some black wheels. I got a quote of $420 for springs+camber(front/rear)+alignment. Seems like a good price don't you think?
