Average lowering cost

I searched around for a while on the forum looking for a pricing average on this, but could not find one. What is the typical cost of lowering a maxima? (springs, struts, ect whatevers needed + labor)

You can do it for not too much and still do it right

New KYB Gr2's...about $250 shipped
Quality used springs. Eibach, H&R, Progress.....about $120 shipped
Alignment....$60

Other items like new mounts, strut bearings, and dust boots are recomended but not a must unless those items really need replaced.

Or you could go for

New Illuminas.....about $450 shipped
New Quality springs.....about $200-$250 shipped
KYB dust boots.....about $50 for all four
New mounts and bearings......about $125 from the dealer
Alignment....$60

You can do it yourself for free

Jump on current group deals

408 Illumina’s Shipped

200 H&R’s Shipped

~ 200 install
~ 100 alignment.

I ended up paying a lot more for the Energy Suspension, but I gained a solid vibration free steering wheel!
