Install cost on lowering modules
How much does it normally cost for a shop to install an ELM?
Looking to get a Renntech v2 or v3 for my 2013 cls550

TIA

How did you guys get such low prices? I got a quote for $400. He broke it down as Parts-160, alignment-110 and labor-120.

I thought so. thats why I hung up faster than he could say thanks for calling.
he said the parts are for some lowering modules that he will install.
he said using the STAR system to do it is not recommended and will still cost me 200 because it takes a long time to do it and labor will be high. made no sense at all.
