Labor Cost for installing lowering springs?

Hey all,

I just ordered H&R lowering springs for my car and made a few calls to local shops in my area to have them installed.

First place I was quoted 4hrs of labor for the front springs and 2 hrs of labor for the rear @ $120/hr + $125 for alignment. Total = $845

This seems high to me? What have you guys been quoted or actually paid to have this job done?

Thanks

not sure where you are but here in Bay area, i paid $350 to install them and $300 to remove and reinstall stock. install was breeze per installer ( took him 3 hours ) but putting back stock springs is ***** due to compression of stock springs

Cool. Yeah I don't think it's going to take them the 6hrs they quoted... Thanks!
