Tein ss Install help

Sup all,
Just install prokit by myself and couple friends about 3hrs. don't like the drop but ride very nice. Now i want to get Tein SS. Should just follow Tein's instruction or pay for installation ($250.00 in Reston, VA). I have my prokit for 2 months anybody want it, let it go for cheap.

I like having them done at a shop for 1 reason...liability. If I **** something up then guess who pays for it? If the shop even scratches it.. I can make them get me a new whatever. To me the $250 install fee is like insurance...plus I dont have to get all dirty

it not about the money, but the knowlege and challenge. If they can do it, I think I can do it to, Just take time with Tein's instruction. It will be O.K

Question Tein Part number you purchased?

What was the part number of the Teins you purchased? I can't figure out the tein website but Have seen the SS in action on the RSX Type-S and I know thats what I want... But when I look at the website all it says an all the Civics is In development. I know the RSX and the 7th gen chassis is simialar but there not the same suspension are they?

that's the retail price for them, but you can deffinately get them for cheaper than that. I ordered GC's and i think they suck.... so i'm getting Tein SS within the next few days.
