Install Prices...are these decent?

I went ot a local shop who puts in performance parts.

Is about $350 a good price to install new springs and sway bars on my 2002 TL Type-S?

Thanks

The sway bars aren't that hard and shouldn't cost that much to do. You could probably do it yourself. I remember being quoted like $75 to $100... if I recall correctly.

Yea he said it was like $50 per axel and if they were dong the springs at the same time it would be a little less as the car will already be up.

not exactly sure how much it cost to install sway bars but i paid $80 for my comptech springs installation. I'm guessing $350 is a little too high?

Does that install price perhaps include the springs and sway bar?

I installed my springs and shocks myself, first time doing it and it is really not difficult at all. Saved myself a ton of cash. CT sway in the mail and just purchased the headers, planning on installing them myself

I am afraid of using the coil spring thingy.

How long did it take you?
Was it just one of you or did you have help?

What tools did you need?

Thanks
