Thinking of buying A-Spec suspension but....

ok well I am thinking about purchasing the A-Spec suspension set for around 700 dollars. But I am not sure where to get it installed at, my local dealer quoted me 600 dollars for the installation!! Should I just get it installed at some third party shop? Or should I try to get them on myself?

i'm gunna tackle them myself -- but if you don't feel comfortable w/ that, you should go to a third party brake/suspension shop - they do this kind of work routinely, and shouldn't have a problem w/ the Acura suspension.

I'm In San Diego and had it installed by a local suspension shop $303.00 including alignment after. Much better than the $600 the dealer quoted me. Would have done it myself had i had access to a garage. Instructions didn't seem to complicated. Mechanic that did the work said the back seat was a little tricky to get out (hidden screw but otherwise easy.

x420actionx, did you get your TL from Cerritos Acura? I was able to get my local dealer (South Coast Acura) to beat Escondido's Ebay's price. I paid $550 for the A-Spec suspension plus 4 tech hours for installation. I could of taken the suspension and had them put in for $200 in Little Saigon, but for a brand new TL, I wanted my baby to have Acura's warranty on parts and installation.
