I'm in the SoMd/NoVa area, just trying to see if there is any respectable shops around on the weekends that can install a suspension kit ( springs and struts/shocks ) and a decent price?

I could do it for ya...not for another two weekends though. Only takes 4-5 hours, and that's if you run into some problems. I don't have my spring compressors though, need to get them back from the person I let borrow them.

Skunk & I could do a double install day, I have mine I need to take care of, as well.

PM sent! That might work out since he did say not for another 2 weeks. It gives me time to shop around a little more for a decent price for springs and shock combo. I see nice deals going around at Tirerack for eibach kit or h&R kit. But how much would I be charged for installation?

I got a set of spring compressors and can do it fast.

So what type of beer are you buying me?

Lol I hope everyone realizes it's a e46 not e36.

Your price and type of beer you like?

Finally ordered my eibach sport spring kit with shocks from tire rack. 7xx$ shipped from tire rack.com and a set of 80$ ground control RSM's too from bimmer world.

Should get them this week.

Now who wants some $$ and beer?

not to hijack or anything, but anyone here do coilover installs on e30s? this would involve modifying the strut housing (cutting off stock perch and welding on aftermarket perch).

yea, but my install is quite a bit more trouble, as there is welding involved. :(

Yeah I can't weld...nor would I want to try on a suspension component on someone elses car.
