Anyone in Hampton Roads done this?


I'm on leave for a week and I'm finally going to have enough free time to install my Eibach springs. I also got the Maximum Mototrsports CC plates and Steeda Bumpsteer kit. springs I can do easy, but I'm a little apprehensive about the cc plates and the bumpsteer kit in terms of how to set it up well enough to get me to an alignment shop. i was planning on going to Rick's Car Care to get everything dialed in, and that's about a 20 minute drive for me. can any of you local guys give me some pointers? Thanks

Well, I installed the eibachs and the Steeda bumpsteer kit on Monday. everything went well. took the car to Rick's on Tuesday to get the cc plates installed and get the alignment. took a little longer than expected, but I went to the bar around the corner to kill the time. when Rick was done with the car, everything was perfect. alignment was actually better than before I installed the springs. car drives as straight as an arrow. thanks again, Rick!

Eh, about $205 per tire. But with mounting and balancing, alignment, and some kit I needed to get the alignment right, it was about $1000 out the door. Still a good price I think.
