Most AFFORDABLE SUSPENSION installation places in SOCAL

Hi guys, I'm in the LA/OC area and am curious if there's an affordable place to get my suspension (TEIN S TECH) installed... best price I've gotten so far is $80.00

Please advise

Thanks

IMO - $80 is a great price if it is a good shop.

Ok I've installed springs a million times in cars. $80 is highway robbery to the shop IMO. I'd need to make 3 times that to consider it!!! If you can get it that cheap do it. Have you ever installed springs? It is a royal pain in the A$$!

I could maybe understand only $80 for a full coilover install, but they will have to take apart your struts with a spring compressor and put the new springs on there. DO IT! This process is hours of labor! This usually takes me 3-4 hours to do.

i totally agree with this guy!
if i charged you any less i would not care how your car was installed, just as long i as i got it in there even with super glue or even hammer it in there.

Ask for Vic, his installs are great! and you will trust him after you see the 240 he built by himself and was featured recently in import tuner.
I dunno if it will be $80 but it may be a little higher and his work is great

if you're willing to go to SD, pm protocav. He should be able to do your springs for a good price. He's done a bunch of suspension installs for G's and Z's.
