Don't know any spot up that way but you should hit Losaun up. He'll give you a good price to install. It'll be worth the trip to the southside.

batlground is a very reputable performance shop. not sure how they are on pricing though.

zen is in suwanee. up 85 north

forged is in marietta as well. off of 41 near the interscection of 41 and south marietta pkwy.

mainstream is in dallas...maybe 15 miles west from marietta if going up 120

i dont know the pricing to have coilovers put on so i cant help you on what a good price is

Where did you end up going OP? I'm in Vinings/Marietta and need a set of springs installed on my IS350. The dealer wants 700 labor.

I don't understand why everyone wants to do the alignment when you do the lowering. I always thought it was better to let it settle a few weeks first?

I actually just had a nice discussion with Dan at Zen. I'll be taking my car there. He was very knowledgeable and quite helpful.

Installation + Alignment at Zen was quoted at $500. $450 for just the install without alignment. Nalley Lexus quoted me $1245 for the F-sport springs ($300) installed with alignment. It also took the service writer 4 hours to figure out what I was talking about. Needless to say the decision was easy.

I was going to go with a pro kit or &R but he told me to take a look at the Tein s tech. Anyone have comments on the quality of Tein as I have not heard of this company before but have put H&R/Eibach on many cars in the past.

I know im probaly alittle late but I have also would have to recommend Zen Motors. They recently did a full build on my Evo and currently do all the maintenance on my GS. They also will be doing my new VIP set up very soon.


Actually I think I remember seeing the OP's GS here the other day. Glad to see more ppl taking their cars to Zen. You just cant go wrong with these guys.
