Let me know how your suspension works out for you: I'm really interested in this for myself.

Now I see the many parts that need to be changed I understand the pricing a bit better. It's a real shame you got no other viable option for installing. I hope the enhanced driving experience makes up for the expenses.

Is it monotube on Performance Suspension?
If not... big waste of money!

My dealer quoted me a little over $2,000 as well today for the install and alignment. Looks to be the going rate for most dealerships. Since I don't track or autocross the car, I think I'll pass. Probably, will need to settle for a more modest improvement instead of a significant improvement from my non-sport suspension as long as the cost is more reasonable.

just try and find a sport suspension off someone one here that upgraded to the performance or other suspension, that way you may get it for much cheaper and still get a better feeling than stock
