BMR springs came in today, should I?

Should i install them myself and save 300 bucks? My dad and i would do it so it wouldnt be alone. What do you guys think?

It isn't bad, especially if you have some help.

Definitely a job you can do yourself. Of course you need the tools and help would be beneficial too

Here is the link to the instructions for our BMR lowering spring so you know what you are getting yourself into. It isn't a bad job at all and most of our customers install our lowering springs in their garage or driveway.

http://bmrsuspension.com/siteart/install/SP019.pdf

If you decide to do the install yourself and run into any hiccups or have any questions don't hesitate to give us a call.

Sears will do it for $200. I had them install Zl1 springs on my car and they gave me BMR lowering springs price.

Pretty easy job, however If the 300 included the alignment I might consider it

Hope I don't offend anyone by hijacking this thread, but I would like to know if someone can tell me why the initial link above indicates that a torx 40 and 50 are needed, but the BMR instructions say nothing of using a torx?

Anyone?
