Yeah, it was ridiculous. Most of the shops said they don't want to be responsible if something is messed up.

Anyone lnow how to put on coilovers and align??

clevrname · 11-05-2012, 07:12 PM

Coilovers are really simple and to the point if you already have top hats.

Alignment, I'd recommend taking to a reputable shop. Mine will be going to DIA for alignment on Wednesday. Coils are being installed tomorrow! Yay! Mine will be a direct swap so I should have it done in about an hour and a half.

_F-R-S_ · 11-05-2012, 07:18 PM

Where are u having them installed and aligne and what coilovers do u have?

clevrname · 11-05-2012, 07:23 PM

I'm installing the coilovers in my driveway. Haha. I've done springs/struts before on previous cars so this will be much easier. I got the KW V3 coils, what about you?

_F-R-S_ · 11-05-2012, 07:35 PM

I got bc. Dont have mich money left. So u think u could assist in getting mine in?

clevrname · 11-05-2012, 07:48 PM

I could try. Haha. There is a thread in here on how to install them. I work in sales and its hard to get free time, Tuesdays are my only day off and I plan on getting mine dialed in tomorrow.

If you're not in a rush I could possibly help the following Tuesday. They're my only day off until two weeks from Sunday.

Sorry did not read whole thread but this is to who was wondering about front tags.
This is how I have my front tag installed, figured it would be better than drilling holes into the bumper
Hope topic is still active
