What does it include, just the coilovers or the "ASPEC suspension" as Acura defines it? Given the price, I'm guessing it's just the coilovers...well, since you can get the parts for $650 shipped, that's $350 to install, which I think is on par with what other people have paid (much less than my dealer's quote). Seems reasonable to me, although that $350 could also get you a CT RSB and an intake and you could install everything yourself.

Its just the struts and springs. Yea they told me $650 for the suspension and $350 for labor. I would do it myself but i dont have time for it. And i want to keep my factory warranty on the car. I guess ill take the car in the morning and let them install them. Im going to buy a comptech rear sway bar later this month.

I just paid $625 shipped, and less than $200 for install with alignment, so that is a little high in my book.

Where are you located.

Part-wise, they should be $600. I paid $50 for shipping from CA (CT RSB shipped, too). From what Msnowden said and a post I saw yesterday, $350 does seem high, especially if they're not putting the RSB in at the same time (probably still high). If you were closer, I'd give you a hand with it...it's not that bad...we could probably do it in 4 hours or less.

i can do s2000 suspension in under an hour for all 4 sides. i jsut want to keep my factory warranty on this car and not worry about and squeaks or anything cuz they will have to fix them if they installed it for me. Rather just pay the money on this car. Im going to get the RSB later this month and install that myself.
