speak normal english please


is there's a different between "have them put on" and "getting them done right?"

i don't know how they can put on the stuff "wrong" or done without doing it right.


that just for LABOR, the stuff of course is not included.

for example:

eibach prokit 200
ingall rear camber kit(if they have an application for that) 150

+installation


PS: you'll need an alignment which is around 60-85.

Well some guys will just put them and not care about how they do it...and some will spend time and put them on right...

I've bought the Neuspeed Sport Shocks and Ingalls Rear Camber Kit, that was 300 total...

now he's quoting me 350 to put it all on

350 just to put it? lol'd

he must be crazy for asking that much.

"Well some guys will just put them and not care about how they do it...and some will spend time and put them on right..."

that i cannot tell you, i have no idea where who you are looking at so that's your problem, but to let you know, there's only one way to install it, if he/she is doing it right, he/she wouldn't be spending too much time.
if the guy spend 3-5 hour installing your stuff, i would consider bring your vehicle else where. it's not like you are doing a painting and the more time you put the more detail you can get, it's just bolts and nut.

Buying a Helms manual for your car - $80

Saving money from not having to pay for installation - $350 in your pocket

Learning how to work on your own car and merely turn a ratchet - priceless

He/she better install the springs/shocks right or else it'll take their life.

You should see how powerful one of those springs are when they are fully compressed.

Trust me those springs when compressed sure can fly.
