Spring Install Shop in LA???

Hey all,

Anyone know of a reputable but cheap shop near Downtown LA or the valley to install springs?

I just checked with my gas station shop next to work, to see what they'd charge...$903

There's a guy down in San Diego that installed my coilovers for $200 if you want to make the drive.

Call Kevin @ 168 Motoring. They're in Torrance and I believe do it for $300.

I'll consider those if I can't find a shop closer to me. I'd prefer to drop the car and head to work since I'm in the valley.

Don't get lowering springs not good for your factory struts. Either you do it right from the beggining with coils or don't do it st all

Highly recommend 168 in Torrance/Gardena. My last 2 cars and the wife's car has been worked on by them. Kevin and G. are awesome.
Mod_____ charges around $350 but they're pretty far out there. I called Trinity once and their prices are ridiculously high.
