Sure, and I have a few bridges for sale too.
Dealer prices:
$335 for springs
$980 install
$140 alignment
I am the carbonLORD not the carbonSUCKER.
I priced Eibach Pro Kit for $240 at Shox.com and $140 for the alignment is reasonable, but I'll be damed if I'm going to pay nearly $1K to put them on, hell, I'd put them on myself and have them fine tuned before I throw away a grand.
Will be calling indi shops later.
What did you pay?

My local indy estimates 4 hours @ $75/hr. + $70 for alignment.
Using those numbers, I'll be at around $400 total for labor & alignment. Numbers don't change whether or not they also install new shocks.
Shox.com has best deal for parts...$235 for Pro Kit, $699 for Pro System. (Plus tax and shipping, of course.)

I had to shop around. Some places here very high, others more reasonable.
Can't really tell if there's a direct relationship between how much the charge and the quality of their work.
