Hey, assholes. Chill the fuck out.

He asked a legitimate question.

OP, your best bet is to call around to local shops and get labor rates. Lowering springs install the same as if they had to change a strut out on a car, so just have them give you the hourly rate and then a quote for how long the job will take. Get an alignment afterwards, stuff is gonna get moved around and you don't want to burn through tires.

It's a legitimate question yes, I think what has us puzzled is why he's so particular about a shop having experience with something this common. I assume he's new to auto mods but like you stated its pretty routine and he will need an alignment after.

Fair warning OP, springs ride like a super ball in a paint shaker. Research your parts to see what works well with your car. I've never ridden in Any car lowered on springs that didn't bounce like a fat girls ass in size two jeans at the club.

Tuna At CWB does this kind of thing all day long. Great shop, good prices and he works on most of the high end cars in the area (not uncommon to see a Lambo / AMG / Bentley in the shop) and that should say something.
