Approximate labor price for Coilover, camber/toe kit install?

Looking to install some kwv1 coilovers, and an SPC camber/toe kit. A local performance automotive shop quoted me 400 for labor. Is this too much or a fair price? Any input is appreciated, thanks.

Note: I don't know how to install these myself nor do I have the tools required.

Does it include an alignment? Sounds like a fair price if it does. Why not call around 2-3 other shops to get other quotes as well.

its a good price, try to call other places and compare your quotes, them pick the best one.
keep in mind the reputation of the place and reviews.

at a infiniti dealership this will cost you over $1000
i work for Warren Henry Infiniti in Miami

About 4 hours of work for a shop in no rush @ $100 an hr. Sounds about right.

Tell them 400 with alignment. Also, if you trust the shop, its worth paying to have it done right. I just paid 300 for install of front and rear camber kit + alignment.

Good luck
