Default Spring/Shock install in MD?

Hey all,
Apex84 directed me here. Anyone know of any good shops in the Baltimore / North of Baltimore area who can install shocks and springs for a decent price?

I've checked out a few places but am pretty tired of getting dealership prices (and stories of 4.5 hours to install) from these shops that hear "Lexu$". Last time I had my springs installed (~2 hours) at Road Magnet but that's not possible at this time. Hell, if anyone knows of good shops in DE or Philadelphia (or I suppose north of DC), I'll consider that drive.

Thanks

I would check with JE Import Performance in Rosedale, MD or Swift Racing Technologies in Beltsville, MD

Mo at Swift Racing specializes in IS300s

DO NOT use these guys. Several of my friends have been ripped off there.

I can do it for you, for $250. PM me if interested; I live 5 mins east of Arundel Mills Mall. You can drop it off one night and it'll be ready for you in the morning. Many can attest to my knowlege of lexus vehicles; I've built several cars on my own in my garage.
