whats up every1....i just got my hayame coilovers a few days ago. i called up one of the shops around where i live and asked how much would it cost to have them installed. they told me around 150 to 175.....is that a good price?

nope.. average install price is about 80-120 but even then its a rip. Check the regional section and find someone that lives near you who can help you out or something. its really easy, just time consuming

I agree. Especially with the fact that the Hayames are a full replacement, it'll be really easy. I myself would help you out if you were in LA, but since your on the east cost, sorry.

LOL, I've swapped springs on 7th gens enough to where I can now do it in about an hour and a half...that is of course with a full automotive shop and all the right tools at my disposal.

With a hoist and proper air-tools, installation could be done in no more than 1 1/2 hours at a competent mechanic. Doing it home, you will probably find it could take several hours (or days in my case) to install them.

If you have the money, then just pay it, but try to see if you can get it done for cheaper.

You should also check out the DIY. It will be much easier than the spring install because you don't need to take apart the strut click here The only thing you need is a nice breaker bar to take out the control arm bolt.

Not really, just get a tie rod puller from autozone.

Just do it yourself. Get the DIY spring install from this site, get the tools which are cheaper than paying a shop to put them on for you, and start in the rear since the rear is easier. Just don't strip those 14mm nuts in the rear strut tower which can be avoided by simply paying attention to what you're doing.
