Unhappy Need a shop in So. Cali to install coilovers...

I was originally gonna get them installed at Mac Car for $100, but I heard the 2 guys there that knew how to, quit. Anyone know of any shops around the LA area that will do the job for around $100-150?

I don't see why not.

Br1an, give Todd a call. He'll get you all set up.

Yeah...I told him I was from CL and if he could go any lower...he said lowest he could go was $200.

BTW...I found someone who can do it for $100. Thanks for all your help guys.

Make sure your installer knows what he's doing. The TM guys are Lexus suspension pros. I'd pay the $200 just to know my gear was installed and tuned to the finest. Plus TM takes good care of you even after the transaction is complete. BTW, the shop manual on suspension is 8 hours. Times that by the ACTUAL labor rate, and $200 is a steal!

And your sig says what can happen if people who don't know what they're doing get ahold of your car.
