How much for a drop job.

I've got the H&R Springs and Bilsteins already and the pads. I Just wanted to know how much you guys paid to have them Installed? Is 350.00 about average? That is what the shop here is charging me.

$350 is a tad bit high for springs and shocks on a W208. The W208 is a really easy car to work on, suspension wise.

150.00 is cheap compared to around here, Ive only been looking around the past week. But seriously, I think Cali shops are cheaper because of the competition.

I might pay a lil visit to that shop. Sounds pretty cheap to get the job done.

I was quoted 400 for the job. i did it myself. wouldnt recommend it unless u know what youre doing though. $150 is uber cheap.
