Can this be right? I recently bought the Neuspeed SofSports and Koni adjustable shocks. A local garage gave me a quote of $415 to install them with an alignment. Is this in line? If not, where else can I go in the MetroWest area? I really don't have the time, tools, or experience to do this myself.

250-300 would be more reasonable.

I got mine done by my buddy in Quirk VW (Braintree) about $250. If you need help I can refer you to him. You may check my ride in my profile about my set up too. Good luck for your lowering. ---Alex---

I paid $315 including alignment (the guys that did it don't do alignments so they brought it to someone else and then marked up the other guys work so it was a bit more than if I had taken it myself but they're cool guys so I didn't mind).
