Question for all of you who have had coilovers installed or any suspension components for that matter...How much am i looking at in terms of cost? Any specific recommendations of shops? Testimonials?

On a side note, I called Auto West today, seeing that I purchased my car from there and they do have a developing performance division and I was mainly concerned about warranty issues; however it turns out that regardless of where I get them installed, they're going to void "select" components of my suspension...In other words if a problem ever arises that could be slightly linked with suspension theyre not covering it. I was quoted 8 hours of labor at $102.50 an hour. Now I know I have no experience with a coilover install, but that is just plain rediculous. The coilovers are gonna run me like 1300US and an additional 1000CDN for install!!Theres no way I could ever justify that, even if I had the money which I dont. This is very disappointing to finally save up enough for wheels and suspension to have them quote me such a rediculous figure. :banghead:

Help me out guys...

Thanks in advance
