Haha! Yea I wouldn’t pay that much. Unless it was a good cut!!

Make sure they are genuine Eibach springs. My Eibach's have a plastic sleeve around the coils. There's also Eibach printed in white on the coils.

Yea the box in the picture showed the Eibach model number on it which is what I used to make sure I was getting the right ones so I’m hoping their genuine eibach.

This is what i got. Looks like the real eibach stuff to me! looks like bump stops are only used on the front according to the install instructions. Hopefully get them installed before to long. Then I’ll post some pics!

I got the same kit installed with sways and endlinks for 4hrs labor. ($120/hr) I didn’t get the bump stops installed. Ride is pretty stock. But the turns and twisties are unbelievable with the sways and endlinks! Wasn’t expecting the change to be that drastic.

I installed the Eibach Pro springs for LT’s. It was a pain in the ass, at multiple points I couldn’t get pieces to align without excessive force and a second pair of hands. I also replaced the shocks when doing so and imo fronts aren’t bad unless you get issues with taking the top nut off the shock which is a pain and you’ll need some pass through wrench and someone holding the unit while you remove it. The rear is a pain with taking pieces of the control arm off and then lining it all back up.

For $400 I’d take the install and alignment but with a week waiting period between. Make sure they clock everything as well: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=458114

When did you guys order your Eibach springs and how long did it take to get them shipped out? I ordered a set from RDP Store on December 8, nothing yet.

For me, I would get it aligned then checked in a week. See if the shop will agree to that

Be sure he clocks the bushings.
