Default Lowering Springs (Hook me up!!!!!)

I have 07 gs and wanna get mine lowered (for my bday which is 20th)
was thinking of getting Tanabe DF210 springs for sharp look
and better handling but the price!!!! ( Dang it!!)
I mean I found a brand new set on ebay like low $200s
but I called several shops local the labor was killing me

Does anybody knows good and cheap place to either buy or intall?
I 'm in Anaheim area (I can travel to LA , OC , even riverside if I need to)

Please somebody hook me up for my bday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

springs are cheap as it is already. i wouldnt go with some no name spring for $200 bucks. remember, your whole car is riding on this. do you want it to ride on some cheap $200 springs.

as for install you have to figure probably an hour a corner since springs take longer to install than coilovers. expect prices anywhere from $200-$400 for install. some may or may not include an alignment but you will need one.

Does that includes alignment as well? Can you hook me up some places you know ?

Isn't Tanabe good for gs model?

doesn't include alignment. look at the socal forum (towards the end of the forum list) and search for music box. tommy is the owner and he's great. 6268232853. 150 was the kind of rate i saw when i installed mine 2 yrs ago. don't know what it's now but should be about the same. but tommy is good and he's one of the cheapest around, tons of members go to him anyway. tell him henry refers you
