need someone to install lowering springs in mississauga

basically i got in a accident, the rear was hit bad so my rear suspension had to be replace, the mechanic had put back the rears with stock springs, so i need someone to just drop the rear because my fronts are already dropped, and wasnt touched from the accident, i need it done for a good price and i know the rates. btw its on a 98 acura 1.6el

if your driving from west on steels it will come on your left side after passing dixie road, if you are going from east to west it will come on your right after Goreway, on steels, i think Roberto is in the second section on your left as soon as you enter it, he's got good ish, don't go to those brown guys in the 3rd sections, they have ricer stuff now, and sell for too much i remember getting a quote for 18inch black 5 spokes, guy said $4000, later in the day i found same rims same size selling for $2,500 from a professional rim shop.lol

but yea Roberto is nice, he will hook you up good, he even meets up with people over the week to drop the suspension of to them.

i think it is the 747 i never noticed that number before.lol

Rear shocks does not pay 3.0hr. It pays, depending on the car, 1.8-2.2h max. On civics it's probably 1.8h. You're acting like doing a strut assembly takes forever, to install a new spring it takes maybe 5 minutes with all the setting up and everything. I ****ing wish it paid 1.5hr a corner.. God I can bang of a set of struts in 40 minutes, I'd be calling struts all ****ing day if it paid that much.
