Suspension install in West L.A.- San Fernando Valley?
I have a W210 E55, and I've got springs, struts, and a camber kit on order. I need a good shop that can install these parts and give me an alignment. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Don't know any good shops around those areas but if you want good and knowledgable, try Sanders at The Wheel Supply in Walnut. They know their stuff.

i dont think they do alignments though, you should wait a little till the suspension settles before aligning

Sold
If you dont mind driving a little, Darin at West End in Gardena is probably one of the best around. You need to call and make an appointment since he is a 1 man show and is usually backed up for 2-3 weeks. He installed the coilovers on my S2000, and aligned and corner balanced the car, and I couldn't be happier.

If thats too far, Tri Point Engineering in Canoga Park is good too.
