Question Spring Installer in SD???

I'm looking for a good shop in the San Diego area to throw some H&R's on my w209 for a decent price. Been quoted as much as $800+ for just the labor.

Thanks!

That is a crazy price. Shouldn't be more than an hour or two of work. Find out how much they charge an hour. I paid around $150
