Default Spring Installation

I want to have the Hotchkis Tuning Sport Springs installed but I dont know where to go or how much I would be looking to pay for the install. Should I just go to any body shop? How much does the installation of springs usually cost? How much would it cost to have my alignment checked afterwards? Drop some knowledge to help me out!

More likely a car shop that has done springs on 350z's before...I don't know about a body shop tho...I thought their specialty was bodywork...

If you get the springs on I would let them settle in for a few days before alignment.

Spring installs usually run about $175-225.

Alignment is generall $50 additional, if you even need one. I wouldn't get one right away, drive on it, let it settle. And if the car drives straight/fine, then skip the alignment. Unless you install a camber kit at the same time, then get one.

I'd recommend a month before alignment.
