I need a shop to install my Swift springs pleaseeee

I just bought some swift springs for about 300 bucks. I want to get my springs installed but I don't think it should cost more than 50% of what I paid to get them put on...does that sound fair? Every place I've contacted thus far wants AT LEAST 225 to install. Does anyone know any shops in Central NJ that would install these springs for a decent price? I think there should be some kind of sticky thread for shops that offer the best prices and are validated by at least 3 or 4 forum members....this way everyone wins, the forum members and the shops as well.

Anyone ???

$225 is a fair price for a professional shop to install springs. Figuring 4 hours of labor that is only $56.25/hr. That''s not a bad labor rate for a shop at all. I charge almost that much to do it in my driveway for people who aren't close friends or team mates.

If you mean Mike "Ohh Noes", I can vouch for his work as he installed my coils (among dozens of others) at half the price of nearby performance shops and did a great job.
