St.Louis/St.Charles -Best place to get Springs installed?

[Ocx]

I'm looking to get the Eibach lowering kit installed by a reputable shop. I went to Pur and they wanted almost $900 including the springs for the entire job. That seemed like it was WAY too high for a $200 part + labor + alignment.

Anyone have any luck getting the Eibach pro kit installed locally? If so, how much did it cost? I'm thinking of just buying the springs and paying for the install.

Thanks for the info, I'll give him a ring and see what we can work out. I pulled the trigger on these last night from Jegs, the ship time said the 29th when I ordered them...today it shows April 2nd. :/

Where in St Louis are you located? I recently did my springs in the garage with hand tools. More than willing to give you a helping hand to save some money. Lets try to actually make this a true camaro5 family!

I live in O'fallon off Bryan Road, used to live in Webster Groves. It will be over 1.5 weeks before I get my springs from Jegs. I'm all about saving some money though, especially after going to the pump today. :(

On a side note, I recently moved to O'fallon and I gotta admit I'm pretty bored. There is no cruise strip, no Home Depot on Lindbergh to check out some rides on Friday/Saturday...nothing. Just cookie cutter houses and every fast food chain you can name all within a block of each other.

And it seems EVERYONE out here has a Mustang or a Challenger...

I'm in Ofallon and I don't.
But your right, there isn't any hangouts sadly.

I was debatin on lowering my car too and also contacted Pur performance, they quoted me 550 in labor(installation and allignment) and 500 dollars for the Eibach Springs (the same ones that are like 250 on their website). I was kinda thrown off by their numbers so I didnt even reply lol. I am not sure if they misunderstood what I was askin for or if they are just insane. Since that though I've held off on getting some springs

Pur performance if a rip of i went out there want gets whipple put on they want close to 10g.

The only "cheap" thing they seemed to have their was the Stage 5 Camaro with 5,xxx miles on it...they wanted $40,000 for it.

Last year we had a small driving group meet up at Imos in Winghaven every thursday night. We got some special food deals and i just got an email from the manager there looks like they are going to start a weekly Saturday car cruise.

Not sure when they are going to start, but if anyone wants more information they can call Scott at 636 625 3001. Scott is the Manager at Imos and was pretty cool to work with. Im sure with enough interest we could set up our hangout spot for us western saint louisans.

I will try to also find out more info and post back.
