Northern Virginia shop for parts installs, etc
Can anyone in NOVA reccomend a good shop for springs, shocks, etc installs. I had a good place in MD called CIC performance that did a good job on my springs for around $200. Hoping I can find a place like that here in Northern Virginia.

Quality Tire in Woodbridge. Kevin the installer has done a few TL's already. He just did some springs on a friends TL. Not to mention I highly recommend him and Quality Tire.

Hell yes.... I would be all over this.... 
I have done all of my own work so I could contribute with install stuff but I do not know if I want to tackle the suspension install..... I know xtin and I have both been shopping and looking for some Teins and install.....
I work at Quantico so I will look for this place in Wodbridge but I think an install day would be a great idea!

The place is off of Telegraph Rd. in Woodbridge next to IKEA.
I might even be willing enough to host the install day. Suspension is really easy. We could probably lower 3-4 cars in a day if they have full coilovers going in. Full swap of springs may be a little longer. However, I've done it all plus I'm sure my friend wouldn't mind loaning me his air compressor again. Hell I might even be able to persuade him to help some. Then we could probably have a small BBQ. Just a thought anyways.

Several members from AZ have used Dennis and have been quite happy with him. I personally have not had work done by him but I've heard nothing but good things. Just thought I's pass on the info.

. I missed the last GTG, so I need to give back a bit.I've done HID fogs, interior gutting for AV install, suspension, RSB, CAI, Thermoblocks, about to do procats. Bout the only thing I won't do is clear headlights... too much liability.
Got lots of tools too. We'd need a spring compressor for spring replacement though.
jmb, set it up, and I'll spend a Saturday helping/coaching thought whatever our NoVA bretheren. Mid September?

Speaking of which, I have the A-Spec suspension sitting in my house... With a set of Comptech springs...

You should just come over some Friday after work (I'm in Stafford). You buy the beer.

We'd need to borrow a spring compressor from ustozone, but yeah... no big deal.

Wow, this sounds cool. I'd definitely be interested and can provide beer/food to compensate for my mechanical inabilitys...lol
Unfortunately, I'd probably only be able to get a RSB by mid-next month or so. Possibily a CAI... Eventually I'd want to also do the suspension, but will need to wait till next year
Please let me know if this does happen though. Thanks!
