New H&R springs $300 installed

Is this a fair price? Or is $297 installed for Eibachs a better deal?

Cost is $300 for H&R's installed or $297 for Eibachs installed

New springs with installation $300 or $297

Details are as follows;

Owner of local auto accessory shop here in California always claimed he would beat any price. I put him to the test 2 years ago when I had my 93 Nissan 300zx twin turbo. He did beat any price I came to him with. So I called him and asked him for the price of Eibach springs for my2001 C320 including installation. He said $297. I then asked for H&R's installed and he said $305.

$300 is a great deal for brand new H&R's. I got some used ones for $100 and paid $150 install. (total 250). Some places may charge you more for installation than the price of the springs!

i am interested in the eibachs... please let me know where this shop is. is he pretty reliable? has he installed springs on mbs before?

That is a great price, I paid $330. I went with Eibach for the softer ride, H&R are a little stiffer. They are both good springs. That price likely does not include the longer camber bolts and wheel aligment, that set me back about $150 at the MB dealer.
