Shop for Coilover Installation

I'm about to purchase a set of Tein SS coilovers for my 4G TL. I was wondering if anyone knew a good shop to get them installed for a pretty good price. Thanks

I bought a set of the HPT 19s that Acura has for my car and got them powder coated gunmetal. Came out pretty nice.

I'll say. Looks great. How much did the powdercoating cost if you dont mine me asking? You just need some tinted taillights now and maybe some darker and more aggressive exhaust tips

It was $80/wheel, any size and any color. It was a place in Joliet called CPC Powder Coating or Complete Powder Coating or something like that. They did great work.

Richie from RV-6 Performance is going to have my car next month to make a prototype exhaust for the 4G TLs. While in the shop, I'm going to send my heads and tails to JnC to get the heads blacked out and tails smoked. And then I'm going to get the grille painted black. It should look better once I get everything done

my guy got his powder coating for 150 all around. he just had to strip the paint himself, or it would of cost a $100 more for them to sand blast them. he went somewhere in skokie, not sure where

I heard that the SH awd starts acting up when you lower it, was that a rumor or did acura update the firmware?

My guess is that its a rumor because I havent read or heard anything like that anywhere. Theres many 4G AWDs that are lowered here on Azine and I dont believe anyone has mentioned anything about it. I might be wrong, Im not sure but I havent felt anything different from the SH AWD system.

I do have the SH AWD model.
