Question Where to get aftermarket parts installed on IS350 in NY/NJ??

Hi all. I'm new here but have lurked for a while. Hope to offer as well as sponge knowledge while I'm around.

I decided I'd lower the IS a little bit with Eibach Pro-Kit because it's a little too cushy, and there's a little too much nose dive for me when braking.

Anyway, All I really want to know is if there's any preferred/trusted shop that people @ NY/NJ take their Lexus to install things like suspension, etc. I know of many places, but mostly for completely different marques like Audi, Porsche, and Mitsu. I want someone who is familiar with the TPMS, alignment tricks of the IS 350, etc.

Are there any Lexus dealers in the NY/NJ that will install mild aftermarket springs like the Pro-Kit without complaining that they're "not Lexus parts"?

Hopefully someone here can come up with something. I've been dying to get this done.

Shameless bump as I'm finding it hard to believe that no one in here from NJ/NY has lowered their IS.

Someone has to know this or have a suggestion.

You might want to try Broadway Performance they have a site so just google it. My friend say they are good with Lexus. I was goin to get my suspension done by them but after spending so much on medical bills my budget is low and so I couldn't afford the suspension yet. They are located in Passaic.
