I payed $200 for my springs a CC plates install. The CC plates are easyto do while the springs are being done, $150 sounds ok.

another vote to do it yourself, I have done it multiple times and it is very easy with the right tools, but if you have to pay I wouldnt pay more than 150 but thats not a bad price.

Tell me this.... Why would you want to lower your car??? Just to get better traction??? I am not trying to be a smart ***... It is a legit question... This may be something I might do.. Just want to know why you do it..

$150 is not that bad compared to what i got quoted. i just put them in myself, not hard at all, you don't even need a spring compressor.

Hey Fuel, how do you like the DropZone springs? Did you get what you paid for or are they pretty smooth?

In the most basic terms, it lowers the center of gravity of the car, giving better handling. But I think many people do it just because it looks way badass.

+1 on doing it yourself.
You'll feel better that you did and plus you will never forget for the nexttime.
