Aspec Suspension and Body kit

How much is a fair price for labor for the install on these two? I was quoted $825.00 I have no idea if this is a good price or not. My dealer does not sell just the suspension and body kit and I really do not need the 18" rims or tires.

Installation Price

Shouldn't cost you more than $200 to install the suspension. The Body Kit alone should be $100-200 to install.

I did the suspension install where I needed to compress the spring. That took me about 5hrs to do by myself. ASPEC suspension I heard does not require removal of pillow mounts, so the install time should be rather quick.

All you need is to give any garage shop the instruction on how to remove the rear seat to access the top strut bolt/nut.

Hope this helps you out.

I did it myself. $825 sounds steep to me.

Best prices today for those items are $ 650 shipped for the suspension, $ 850 shipped for the body kit, $ 330 shipped for the steering wheel. Total of $ 1830. The should include the badges for free with the suspension.
get EVERYTHING from Scott at Cush Acura of Escondido. He is the absolute best in the biz and I have purchased TONS of things from him with zero problems. Really nice guy. LMk if you needc the tel #. I have his e-mail address too.

If Acura installs it, they will warranty it for 1 year parts and labor. If you get an independent shop to install it, then acura will still warranty just the part for 1 year. The labor will be with the shop that did it. Some Acura dealerships will honor the full 4 yr 50k warranty when they install the acura parts that you bring it. It just depends on the dealer. A fair price for the a-spec suspension install is $ 395 INCLUDING alignment afterwards. I do not know about the body kit or steering wheel because i did those myself
