Default Recommended shop for Coil install?

Hey guys, do any of you have a shop you could recommend I take my car to to have coilovers installed. Im about to order my Megan EZ coils and am looking for a reputable shop near the 209 or bay area that can do a great job on the install and for a great price. Let me know guys!

Do it yourself it's not hard at all... if u have to get it done by a shop go WERKSHOP in Ssf great guy and they also give u a 2nd height adjustment after the coilover settle.

One of our forum sponsors, Exact Motorsports in Milpitas, installed Tein Street Flex coil overs on our '92 SC300. Very skilled shop and the resulting ride is as expected and they lowered the car onto the new 19 inch wheels.....

was looking for an installer of springs a couple months back.. contacted Wai through instagram and ultimately his webpage for a quote... if I remember correctly he quoted me $150-$200.......I ended up doing it myself tho.

John from Autosport209 is in the area and is a longtime member and a great guy to deal with. Exact Motorsports is my go-to for all the wrenching I cant do myself.

Anyone know of any good shops in San Mateo to do a full exhaust swap? Trying to trade my stock exhaust for someone's setup.. Talking about midpipe and full cat/axle back.

Anyone have any recommendations for oil change services in the south bay (SJ, Milpitas, Fremont) area? Coming up on my 20k and also looking for tire/brake installation places as well if anyone has any experiences.
Thanks!
