Went down to a local shop and they offered me the Tein CS and installation and set-up for $1500.Is that a high price or is it the norm?This will be my first coil-over set up so any help is appreciated.thanks

The price sounds reasonable. Where in FL are you located? Also ask them if they will charge you if you want to adjust the height. The shop that did mine has adjusted my height several times with no charge.

Springs are obsolete. Do it right the first time. You will regret getting springs. You will know you made the wrong decision and it will eat at you until you finally decide to do it right. You will have wasted time and money on springs. And knowing that you could have been enjoying the superior ride of the coilovers will make you mad at yourself for making a dumb@ss decision like getting springs in the first place.
How do I know all this. I too, tried to save money by getting springs.
Life is to short. See what magic the coilovers make in the way your car handles. You won't regret doing it right.

Get the coilovers! Springs do not settle at the same rate on the car, luckily with coilovers they allow adjustment. Therefore I have the car leveled now, instead of it leaning towards the driver side front.

I had L-Tuned setup first. Very nice, but coilovers are WAY superior. Lighter at each corner. More capable. LESS problems with rubbing if you had dubs or fat-19 setup. Adjustable with EDFC.

dont get the springs!!!!! why??? cause i got em.. the eibach with like 1inch drop of something..... rides like shlt... i hate it.... now im saving up and going the right way getting some full coilovers. i should went the right way and did it right the first time.. now i had to pay for the springs/labor and now the new susp. set up. * my goal is to achieve a agressive stance, having the wheels wells sit right above the tires,(20s)_but still have the comfort of a lexus when it first came out the factory.
