Default $650+ lowering spring install in Pittsburgh???

In Pittsburgh.

Have a 2014 IS 250 AWD and a new set of RSR down springs. Looking to have them installed except I have been quoted $650+ from multiple independent shops in the city and this DOES NOT INCLUDE alignment. Does anyone have any recommendations for shops with cheaper labor rates or is this what I can expect? Seems outrageous. Not originally from the area so any suggestions welcomed.

That seems a little excessive to have springs installed. I just got my springs installed on my RCF and it was cheaper than the price you got and I'm in New York. Prices up here are more expensive and so is the tax. Both cars are different but I doubt it would be that much of a difference in time to have then done. My car took 4 hours to have done.

Thanks, yeah was def not expecting this at all. Was able to bargan $30-$40 off the springs (if original springs returned and then bought through shop) and then install for $599. Still insanity if you ask me.
