Talked for 45 minutes about tech stuff, performance options, possible causes of my different symptoms, life in California and Tennessee, etc. That's a lot of time for a guy he's never done business with and for such a small job. What a great guy, full of knowledge (50+ years experience racing and building Porsches) and genuinely interested in fixing my issues without overselling me anything.
He quoted me $600 for the rebuild labor plus $100 for the basic parts. No extra charge for cleaning the struts or removing/reinstalling the springs like other places (he encouraged not to do any of those things), AND springs and struts will both be tested, strut dyno chart printout included 
Sending the coilovers to him in a week or two, then replacing the parts he recommended while I wait. I'll report back when everything is done. |
Happy New Year everyone.
I know I'm late to the game but curious to see how the service went with Glenn.
I checked some of my old emails with Performance Shock and at the time of email (about a year ago) they were asking $700 to rebuild a set of H&R RSS coilovers and even then, gave a strong impression they were reluctant to do them due to the fact the costs often end up being the same as new.
Thanks in advance!
