East Bay Shop For New Springs
Hey folks can someone recommend a good shop in the east bay that can install new springs on my SC430. My usual shop quoted me $875. and I thought that was a bit much.
Thanks

tell John and Sandy at EM that you belong to CL and they'll take care of you.
Just mention my name, "Hoa" aka teeman3 w/ the silver sc430. they did the spring install for me and I was very happy.

Been a while since I have been on and even longer since I have posted. Met up with RMMGS4 and Jawnthen a couple of weeks back. Seems the only time we get together is when one of our cars is at Exact.
I go to Exact for maintenance and all the mods that John & Sandy cover and have done so for about 6 years. I have also had the GS and LX aligned at Orlando's shop. You can't under estimate the worth of building up a relationship with a good shop.

Exact Motorsports is our NorCal sponsor. You can do an advanced search and read feedback about them going back 5 years. They are not located in your area, but frankly I have not ever seen significant recommendations for other independents in the NorCal section. There are plenty who do drive from SF and the northbay to have work done by Exact.
It might be worth the drive for you to try them out.
