I hear ya and don't blame you

IMO, springs are not that difficult and the suspension isn't that different than a typical sports car setup. i watched mine being done and except for the strut/spring compressor, I could have done it myself. Could have done the headers myself too as they didn't look to difficult, but Renegade Performance has many many years with JBA, so I trusted them.

Good luck!

I know I said earlier that I didn't want to pay $360 for installation, but let me clarify. It's hard to find a good speed shop in San Diego, considering most places have little or no experience with 5th Gen Camaros. I'm not cheap, but when it comes to handing over $360 to someone that might or might not do a good job...I might be prone to pulling a little stingy. Mustang shops are a dime a dozen but I don't drive a mustang. I drive something better. Something newer. Something faster.

If I want the springs installed I'm going to have no choice but to pay up. I might have to research speed shops in the Anaheim area and see what I can come up with. If I'm going to pay I'm going to pay for quality work. JMO

Bro screw paying a shop to intall them, the only decent shop in town it seems is JBA, but they mostly do mustangs.. and their "custom tune" cost $1000. They must be out of their gordes. Drop me a pm, we'll install those babies in my garage.
