Default How much should i pay for lowering?

Hey all...

I understand the whole springs topic comes up a fair bit, ive looked through alot of threads and cant find any info on how much (ball park figure) i should be paying for King SL (front) and SSL (rear) fully installed keeping the current XR shocks. Anyone got any ideas as i dont want to pay hundreds more than is necessary. and also where you got them done and how good the service / quality of installation was?

Cheers guys...

What state or suburb are you in for a start

and with SSL in the rear, you might want to consider short travel shocks, or the stock ones will wear out very quickly.

Im in Victoria... North East. This is an AUII XR8.

In a sense im prepared to change shocks 20,000 ks from now anyway... they've done 65,000 ks so they're getting on. Id like to put Bilstein all around down the track... had them in my ED XR6 and the ride was spot on.

But still interested in a price for the springs alone at the moment...
