Attn: Dallas/Fort Worth Owners
Have any of you guys or gals heard of a Honda/Acura specialty shop called "Better By Borden"? Last I heard they were located off of I-35 and Walnut Hill, but I can't seem to get a hold of them by phone. The owner, Chris Borden, is said to be one of the best Honda/Acura mechanics in this area!
Please let me know if you can get a hold of them by phone at (972)247-3535. I may drive by there during lunch tomorrow (if this damn weather is any better).
Any help is appreciated!

Hey all,
I just ordered my Comptech springs today. Currently, I am planning to have them installed at Jotech for $200 (not including the alignment).
I will let you all know how my experience with them was.

Wow that is great! I thought that the $200 from Jotech was good. I got quoted from David McDavid (Plano) of around $400 for the install and alignment.So can you hook us up with the owner and get us the same deal? That would be awesome, and I would probably get my springs sooner!
Thanks!

Damn!!!
Who do I need to talk to? What's their phone#? Where are they located?
Shit, I've been waiting and waiting for someone in the DFW area to post something other than a dealership and Jotech. I just gave up today and now this post came.
No problem, I won't be getting the springs until Tuesday or so. I'd like to get them on by mid-month if possible.
Let me know!

Hey ktown, for $80, I may be swayed and join in for a volume discount. How much are the
springs themselves?

I'm not to sure this $80 labor charge is legit. I figure a mechanic has to get at least $40/hr for the trouble, and it's at least a 2 hour job.
I think I'm still gonna have Jotech do it because they have a great rep in the Metroplex!
