Got my springs on the way!

I am getting the H&R OE springs. 1" drop all the way around, will look exactly like TypeR's that he posted a day or two ago.

I am excited, I got a great deal. $130/including shipping!!! wooohooo!

that is savings of about $60 total, including shipping.

Anyways, now I will have to call Jotech and see how much the install will be. I sure as hell ain't taking it to David McDavid, since they aren't Comptech springs. shhhhh!!

MikeN- do you remember how much your charge was, I will call them when the springs arrive and try to have a number in mind. Thanks.

yeah well, after seeing yours it did convince me to take the deal that I couldn't afford to pass up. I wanted to see yours before I took the deal though!

My boss has a hookup at Intercrew in Richardson. they do all the same stuff as joetech. Ask for Phillip and tell them Kam sent you. The phone number is 214-575-6288.
He should give you some good pricing.

before everyone starts IM'ing or talking with snook (Tim), I DIDN'T GET THEM FROM TIM

I don't want to say who I got them from, so don't ask. He bought them and didn't want to use them because he picked up and installed Comptech's. So he sold them to me pretty cheap.

But again, I didn't get them from a dealer or from Tim, I got them from a friend.

I got my H&R OE's from maccar.com for $170 shipped. They'll need to order them so be prepared to wait up to 3 weeks to get them though...

so do you think intercrew will be cheaper than the $200 at Jotech?

Forgot to ask, MikeN, did this include an alignment? Thanks.

Well, I got the deal because I called like one month before I actually bought the springs. They had never installed them on a CL yet so they figured it would be $150. When I finally got the springs and called them back to make an appointment, they said it was going to be $200 (they had installed CL springs on 3 cars by this time). I told them I was quoted $150 before, and they said okay.

Anyway, the alignment was done at Goodson Acura for $60. Again, this was a deal because I told them Vandergriff would do it for $60 which is actually what they charge, but Vandergriff does not install or align for aftermarket parts.

I guess I'm just a good dealer.

yeah that's it

sorry couldn't resist. That is a sweet deal, I think McDavid charges around $90 for the alignment, that is shit though.

I will prolly get the alignment after 1 month of having the springs on, that way they are settled.

I will prolly go with Intercrew and mention "Kam" and see what kinda deal I can get. And look around for the best alignment deal I can get as well.

Thanks guys!!
