Coilover install

Hey guys I really need some help ASAP. I'm looking for a reputable shop to install my BC coilovers sometime this week. I would normally do it myself, but work has got me busy as hell. Can anyone give me some reccomendations? Thanks

It's easy...most OG's can do it in a little over an hour...

Subaru's get expensive to mod if you don't start learning to wrench yourself...parts alone are expensive enough, add in the installation at the shop and it goes up real fast...

As mentioned above, figure on $300 for the install then another $100-$125 to get it aligned...save yourself the $300 at least...
