not bad at all ... my dealer wanted 200 for the install, and they were giving me a deal. I got my eibach pro-kit for 180, and did the install myself. probably, could've gotten a bit cheaper price, but not bad ...

SHI!!!!! Figured you'd ask that. I guess it was 1974 from High school, then 12 years in the Air Force while taking EE classes and finally got a Degree in 1986. Been down here in Texas ever since. ps yesterday in was 65 degrees out.

Shit!!! Looking into some mods and for springs the local dealers wanted 679 (Bellevue), 710 (Lynnwood), 770 (Seattle). That's total rape!!! I'm gonna buy elsewhere and maybe have them do the install, but they're asking for me to drop my damn pants in front of the entire showroom!!!!

i know... wildCL... that's more like it... i was gonna say that most people got ripped off. Springs are 300, install is 60, and alignment is 49, for all four wheels.
