Hey, guys I just received 2 estimates from an independent shop, 1 on Daizen Control Arm Bushings and the other on replacing the complete control arms. Does this look about right?
I wouldnt pay that for it!! Id learn to do it myself. why you want to replace the control arms? whats wrong with them?? id rather buy a 1600 car to ride around in until i did the job myself out in the middle of the street
wow!!! i rather buy me a civic hatchback for that price...lol thats too much just for a little amount of work.. imagine if u got the rears done u could buy another 2gs for that price.. keep shoppin around
I'd walk away from both quotes. Clearly these shops have never done a 2GS bushing install before, otherwise they wouldn't be looking at the 12hr book time.
I didn't know they charge alignment by the hour either. Even the best guy over here doesn't charge that much.
Daizen bushings are $100-125 for the front end kit. Installation price will vary widely because some will charge by the book (~12hr) and some will do it on what they think is fair. Not to mention the labor rate varies a lot depending on your location.

^ yep..best to do some more research or keeping on shopping around may be you'll get a better price...
