Why can't you do it yourself?
Honestly, I don't trust anyone working on my car, but thats me. Its not really that hard to install a suspension, but if you must pay someone to do it, find a suspension shop, or better yet, a racing shop, not a bunch of greaseballs.

check out the DIY's on this site. if you can work with tools, you shouldnt have a problem. im one of those who dont trust my own work myself so i always have a buddy with me helping for second opinions/options.


installing springs/shocks/camber kit will prob cost you $300-+ to install and thats a lot of money IMO

If you do all that yourself, you could probably save yourself $200.

Yeah, I called this Import place in Charlotte and they were like $300 for it all and I was like NO thank you.. So I guess I could try it myself, I just don't want to f*** anything up.

I'm in hickory, NC... I just threw in my front Eibach Sportlines Saturday evening.
It wasn't difficult at all. I took my time... and with hand tools it only took an hour and 45 minutes. 2 hours if you count cleaning the tools, putting everything up and the test drive. I also installed the front camber bolt from Eibach. It is an amazing improvement.
If you need some help, Hickory is only a 45 min. drive up 321 from charlotte.
PM me if interested.
