Just called GGR for springs and fitting.

Fair enough the springs are £110.07 + vat = £129.33
but for fitting them they said three hours at £50 an hour + vat thats £176.25 just to fit them!!!

That can't be right I had lowering springs fitted to my new shape bug and it didn't cost that much!!

Rubbish, Digi-Tec installed a complete coilover set on my MCS in 1 hour

Would that include laser alignment ???

I would want laser alignment If I'm dropping my car that much. Makes all the difference IMO.

He did say that includes allignment but the Eibach springs only lower the S by about 15mm. And would it still take 3 hours to do??

Fit them yourself problem solved, the price sounds reasonable to me.
