Default F-Performance Intake, fair price?

for $325 for the F-performance intake. $120 for labor but I'll probably just end up doing it myself.

is that a good price?

It takes about 30 mins to install. Simple DIY.

probably doesn't include tax and I'd pick it up from the dealership. I got my shocks and springs from them a few months back and they were:
Bilstein Shock Absorber Set - (4pcs/2pairs) - $620
Lowering Spring Set - $234
+ $100 off

I think that was a good deal so I don't think they'd rip me off on the intake.

I just bought one off of ebay for $325 and $15 shipping.... My local Lexus Dealer told me they would install it for $55 dollars. I will pay $55 for them to install and warranty the work...

Nope, if you register and give your CL name you get a cheaper price. I believe it was $299 but I'm not sure how much shipping would be for just the intake. You'd probably save $30 ordering from Sewell.

And you should definitely install yourself...it's a really easy install. If you can change your oil you can install the intake.

O nice!. thanks lol. Buying it from dealer gives you instant gratification though.

I'm assuming doing it yourself will void the warranty on ONLY intake? just like everything else?
