Spring installation in 626 area

Hey everyone. I just got my Tanabe springs for GE8 fit and need to have them installed. I was wondering what shops typically charge for spring installation and having them trimming the bumpstops? I'm located in the San Gabriel Valley and am hoping my fellow fitfreak members can guide me to certain shops to have them installed... THanks everyone!

Elton told me you came by the shop. How do you like your coilovers?

Thanks for the referral. Elton is a really cool guy.

The coilovers are perfect for me. They are softer than when i had the Tanabe NF210's and stock shocks, which is a good thing for me. They absorb the bumps MUCH better than my prior spring/shocks, but are stiff enough. I think Elton thought that they were too soft, but I think he does much more aggressive things with his cars than I will ever do.

I wouldn't justify spending the amount I did ($1,500 shipped from Japan), but the prior setup was killing my neck & back, in which im riding on such thin tires (205/40).
