That is way to much. $200-$300 is fair imo. I'm not from so cal so i can't help you find a shop. Lots of members are so wait for them to chime in.

Give them a try... Ask for Chris.

It'll only take them less than an hour to install your springs. $150 for labor. $400 with springs. The springs should have settled in nicely once you drive back to Temecula.

200 miles to save $400 is well worth it. You should really consider it.

200 miles is really not far. i drive about 160 a day, every day, so i know its not far.

Dude I was quoted $150 at Promax. Lol. Anything over that is ridiculous. Speaking of Promax, go to their 10 year anniversary party this weekend and pick up a raffle ticket. If you bring the raffle ticket in after for any sort of mod/servicing, you get 10% off.
