Koni Yellow Strut/Shock Install, How Much Did You Pay?

How much did you pay to have your Koni Yellow Shocks Installed On Your Vehicle? Did You Have Only The Shocks Installed At That Time Or Was It A Shock/Spring/Camber Kit Combo All At Once. I'm just trying to figure out the installation costs because It looks like it would take some time to cut the stock front struts and install the Koni Yellow Insert into it. Thanks in advance for replies

when you install konis, it include the spring install so its best to get both things done at once..
i say pay no more then $150 for the install cause spring install can be found for 80-120.

I dont believe you answered his question. Btw you can install the rear shocks cuz they are a lot easier than the front ones are. Take it to a shop then tell them to just install front ones. thats my advice to save you some money. it will prolly be around $50-100

Do it yourself its not that hard. Most shops are not going to take the time and care you would on your car.

Yea I don't have the tools for it... But suprisingly I called my local shop Pann Auto & they quoted me 80 bucks to install the Neuspeed Springs & The Koni Yellow Struts. I'll be installing these as soon as the Koni's I ordered form Tornactive arrive.
