Good shop for Swift install.

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

Default Good shop for Swift install.

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 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

I am not a big fan of drilling holes through a car. But if you want help doing it I can do that. The spoiler comes with a really good template right?

You know honestly, I havent even looked into the box. Im guessing it does though. I've never done anything like that, and like you, Im definitely not a big fan of drilling holes.

I want to see this! I am playing around with the idea of getting a spoiler - someone can be the guinea pig before I take the leap

Remind me to buy you lunch at the next meet Kirk. Or I could get you donuts if you prefer

Thanks for reminding me Dan, I gotta get in touch with him to get my alignment done?
