okay heres the deal....i've helped a few people before but its mostly YOU doing the work! i'm not gonna do most of it for you, i'll help you get started and if you need help here and there i'll let you know what you need to do and stuff buti'm not doing it for you. You learna a lot more by DIY. I dont charge anyone of course, but so far i've seen that barely anyone knows how to do it. where do you live btw?

daaamn your up in palmdale? i think i'm the closest from you and even i'm far from everyone else... but ya i'll be down to "supervise" you as well. reason being, i dont want to be responsible for anything that goes wrong . yes i did write the detailed DIY but i wasnt able to sucessfully do it. i probably can now cause i've learned alot but ya not positive if i can. as for shops... alot of places near me charge 80-120. never asked about the camber kit tho. try calling ohc motorsport in reseda, hi-speed in sylmar, redline in reseda? if you want the numbers ask, i'm feeling lazy and kinda busy now...
oh and maybe your calling around the wrong places in palmdale? theres a huge racing scene in palmdale, i'm sure you could find a decent shop thats cheap... what i did was goto neuspeeds, eibach, h&r, etc... websites and looked up the dealers.. chances are if they sell it, they install it. dont call the wheel and tire place, call tuner shops.
oh and if you want to DIY, check out the suspension forum and the DIY section. theres about 3 different pictured DIY and there my detailed DIY.

dont get the camber kit installed for 80... thats such a rip.. all you do is take off your wheel and take off 3 bolts... it shouldnt be too hard.. or why not just get the springs installed at that shop and get the camber kit installed elsewhere... but ya i'll get you the numbers to the shops later...
