Haha yea, I called AAM they wanted $430. Hills was reasonable, $200 but they have a huge wait list. Sent Atlantic Motorsports an email as well, waiting to hear back from them.

I know it's not a very difficult job, but just want to ensure it's done right and without having to hear any clunking or knocking after I drive it away. Looking forward to hearing any other quotes you get

Might as well get on that waiting list now. It's only going to get longer the more you wait. If you find something else, it's easier just to cancel ahead of time than to get back in line.

AAM tried to butt surf me for my bung install, won't go back to them again.

You could try JE Import performance also.

If you want to do it yourself you can shoot me a PM and we will open up Kirk's Garage...

Mostly for fun. But you can make money doing it at that price if you know what you are doing. My crew only works on cars for enthusiasts, so there is less of an expectation, and thus less overhead.

Nice. We dropped our cars on the same day.

I ended up taking mine to a buddy's garage - install went a lot faster than expected when you have air tools.
