Coil over install/uninstall

Hey guys anyone got a hook up on a good shop to have a set of tien flex coil overs with edfc removed on a 04 G35 coupe?

Looking for somewhere near Long Beach or the Torrance area.

Edit: Thought it might be a good idea to give a little more insight to what im trying to do.

pretty much have a buddy with a 04 and im taking his tiens for my 07. So I need a uninstall and stock setup put back on the 04 and then for my 07 I wanna install the tiens but I want to wait til I have camber kits out of fear of destroying the tires. btw theres an edfc unit attached to the tiens as well.


You guys think I should hold off on putting the tiens on my car until I have the camber kits or should I put it on a moderate setting and go lower after I get the camber kits?

I had my stock ones taken off and Basics installed for $100 in Arcadia. I nearly **** my pants when they gave me that price. I told them to drop it as much as they could that would look good but not scrape...too much

Shop name is Fast Autowerks, BTW

If you have the tools, time, and space, DIY.

No prob. I had gotten 3 quotes. One was insane, they wanted 250. Then I mentioned I could get it from 200 (a shop that had done the coilovers on my Accord) so they brought it down to 225 and I said I couldnt. After I found the deal for 100 I get another call from the first place saying they'll do it for 200. Told em about the $100 install and I don't think they wanted to match that lol.

thats what happens when you wait.

I still havnt got this done yet seeing how the guy with the 04 im taking this set up off of is out of town.

You guys have been a great help! Looks like I might get this done for a good price.

I edited my first post to try and give people who are trying to help a better idea of my situation.

I would go with the person that quoted you the $200 the basic install for a the coils is not really the issue..I think it's the uninstallaing the EDFC. you may need to pull interior panels and such.

The shop I refer to only charges $110 to install springs.
