Another question from this n00b

I need a shop (or multiple shops) to work on my car. I have these things to do:

  1. repaint my bumper cover. There are scratches on it that look like they were done with a claw hammer.
  2. I’m getting lowering springs…but I don’t have the tools to put them on.

so I need a place that paints factory GM colors, and a place that will install aftermarket springs (they are Intrax, if you wanted to know)

Thanks in advance for the help.

and I did a search on here, noticed AKA Ferrari has a body shop. What kind of price would I be looking at for the one piece?

aftermarket springs are really easy. all you need is a spring compressor and normal tools to remove the assembly.

I don’t have a spring compressor.

i dont have a shop, i run one… i really need to see the car b4 i can quote a price…pm me

You don’t need one for most lowering springs.

you can rent a spring compressor from autozone

not even rent, they need a downpayment on a spring compressor, when you take it back, you get your money back, just make sure you get an alignment done after.

DIY FTW

okay…how much does that cost?

it doesn’t cost a thing…

you front them some money…take the tool as long as you like i think…and when you return it, you get every penny back you gave to them…collateral

true…but typically, down payments are a % of the cost. even if the net difference of money in my wallet is the same, there is going to be a minimum amount of money required.

its like 25bucks
