H&R Springs on my GLK, painted front grill and tinted tails
I purchased the H&R springs for my GLK about 6 weeks back and had the dealer do the install for me. I had 4 quotes and the dealer was by far the cheapest around $250 for the install. The other quotes started at $400 up to $600. I am pleased with the results. Let me know what you guys think. I painted the front grill and had the tails tinted out.

Very Nice... How did end up with black roof rails? How's the ride? Plus you forgot to mention tinted tails and rear markers

That looks fantastic. I ordered the H&R springs from Tire Rack two weeks ago and had them delivered. I sent them back after having a change of heart....your photos are making me reconsider having done that.

It's worse than post and run.
"Willful and malicious desecration of a perfectly nice vehicle" comes to mind. Compounded by awful photography as well.

Sorry guys I dont get on here enough. My bad...
The dealer was the cheapest for the install much to my surprise.
No camber kit needed and I confirmed this with both H&R and the dealership at the time of installation.
The ride is much smoother than before and I prefer the GLK now compared to before the springs. The only thing you have to be careful of is taking speed bumps a little slower than before but otherwise I am please.
The GLK actually gets about .5 MPG better than before the springs. I know it sounds odd but I am very aware of my fuel mileage and immediately after the install I noticed a difference.

Is tire rack the only pace to get springs? I've only been on the forums for a day but I'd like to drop my glk that's on lease.
