Any good suspension shops in CT
As the title states, anyone know any good shops in Connecticut to have my coilovers installed for a reasonable price ---
I have a trusted friend/mechanic, and his skills are top notch, but i like to ask my favors wisely and ive hit him up too many times this year...

I will, i was a little hesitant at first only because I did not buy my coilovers from them (its not a line he carries) and just figured they wouldnt install either a product they didnt sell or a product they dont carry... But i will give it a shot!

that dude is wayyyy over priced if you ask me. he wanted a little more than $500 for eibach springs and tokico shocks and claimed he was "hooking me up" as long as I had him do the work . . . and he still wanted $300 to put it all in. i got the parts online, brand new and shipped to my house for less than $400 and had my boy put it all in for me. just a little shady i think

If your down near the southeast part of CT there is a great alignment shop that can line up any car no matter how low. Its something that really needs to be done after getting your suspension tweaked. If your near the north part of CT i'd hit up excelerate bought my brakes, and other stuff from him very knowledgable, and honorable. Prices were good too I dont know what this other guy is talking about. 225, 250 install at a shop...whatever thats a good deal.

225-250 is a good deal for install if you dont know how to do it yourself. Josh is a good guy. If you are going to fork over some cash it may as well be to someone like Josh (Excellerate).

really not a big deal. i understand you have a place to run. it just seems like the profit is in the install and you are looking to make some more on the parts too. i found the shocks on www.gripmotorsports.com and you can get the springs for about $250 anywhere you look. i got it all for just under $400. the way you worded it to me gave me the assumption that you were giving me a break on the parts as long as you put them in for me. not doubting your work at all, just a little pricey to me is all im saying.
