Anyone have any good experiences (and good prices) to share about LA area shops to install lowering springs?

I am finding it difficult to find anyone that can beat LTBMW...

$175 (springs only install)
LTBMW El Monte, CA
http://ltmotorwerks.com/services/

I called a few other shops and got quotes of $300....

That's the best price that you'll find. EAS charges $250!


edit:

Those are E90/E92 prices. The price is different for the F30/F32. LTBMW quoted the same price as EAS for a spring install on an F30/F32.

Thank you for the feedback.

I doubt the installation process is very different, so just because the car is newer they charge 75$ more....damn

The tech at EAS actually said it's easier to work on the F-Series.

If I had the time and/or the tools, I'd do it too.

I may take you up on that when/if I get sway bars.

Wow! On the East coast(ny) they want 600 bucks for a spring install alone. I'm moving to LA.

Do you guys have a lot of tuner shops out there?

Thought I should update, got the car lowered at LTBMW a few weeks back, for 175$ (posted website rate). Entire job took about two and half hours.

Very friendly ownership, staff, techs, and of course local car nuts just hanging out...

H&R sport springs look great I just wish the rears were a little lower, maybe they need to settle a bit more? But its been two weeks already?? hmmmm

your going to have to accept that the height is set.

"settling" is over stated these days.
settling only takes like a little bit. you can either bounce on the bumper a little or drive it for about a mile or two and it will sit where it needs to be. two weeks is not going do anything more, as u have stated.
