lol I mean is it me or does this sound like a joke??

I was quoted from my Willow Grove Infiniti $615.00 to install 4 eibach springs on my car. LOL

That's 3 times more than what i paid for the freaking springs!!!

Can someone give me some input?? or what to do?



*****UPDATE***********
soo i got a buddy of mine who takes his gtr to this one guy...he quoted me $210 with assembly of the springs and alignment so thats a great price.....and he def sounds like he knows what he's talking about.

 

find an aftermarket performance shop in your area. NEVER get anything from the stealership except a car and free warranty work ........

 

i guess i was just nervous to go to a regular shop...definitely wanna go to a real shop.

whats a typical cost on installing springs?

 

Like 150.. lol if you live in the NY/NJ area I can recommend a guy for you

 

I see people on here paying 150-250 so anywhere in that range should be fine. Just find a shop that does springs often, and they will get the job done for you and most shops warranty the work, the dealership will not.

 

hey Johnny,

yeah man recommend a guy for me, I'll google the area if it's not too far from me...I'm really **** on work especially on my car lol so i wanna take it to the right guy.

should i wait to put springs on my car until i get the spacers?

 

Dealerships typically charger $100+/hr for their labor, an independent shop may charger as little as $50/hr. I do springs all the time, I typically charge about $225.

That does sound a bit high even for a dealership though. I'd have guessed about $400-$450.

 

yeah thats crazy..i would never pay $600 for that work...i mean i understand it's dangerous, blah blah blah.. whatever bullpoop they wanted to throw on me.
i'll be expecting around $225.00. Black betty, you wanna take a ride down here with your equip to do my car? LOL

 

100.00 is what my shop charges.

takes my shop less than 30 min to do all four springs.

 

Wow lightsout...that is a steal and VERY quick.

I think $200-250 is pretty common for most decent shops. Definitely not something you should head to the dealer for.

 

shop I go to has a lift, so that make it much easier.

also does oil changes for 10.00 bring own oil

 

Wheres ur shop? Lol I'm goin! ^

 

Didnt we just do one of these threads yesterday. Do the rears yourself. It is super easy. Take the fronts to a shop and dont pay more than $150 TOPS!

 

Yes we had this exact same thread yesterday. When will people learn about dealership pricing. Lol.

My shop charged me $100 for installing my eibachs back when I had them.

 

Temple City Auto Repair.

This shop rocks. Also do alignments.
