Good shop for Swift install.

Masa · 08-29-2011, 09:43 AM

Anyone have any recommendations for shops to get my Swifts installed?

Hill's Garage contacted me and they are pretty booked for a while so I am on a waiting list with them. Wondering if anyone had other shops I could bring it into.

You could always try the Kirk Garage. It's where I get all my work done.

I'd ask him to help me with my Eibach install... but he'd expect some 24's to go along with it...

I think most shops want up to $600 for a spring install. One reason why I'd like to enlist the help of someone with a spring compressor instead. Payment in beer and pizza (or in Kirk's case... coffee and Dunkin Donuts

)

I gotta buy him lunch or something at the next meet to pay for all the stuff I've gotten done from him

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...

It is stupid simple. No clunks from my coil over install...

I guess I could have just done one post with a multi quote, but this way gets my post count up without having to resort to the dreaded obligatory

posts with no real content or value...
