Shops that will install Bilstein B12 Pro kit
Hi Guys and Gals , has anyone installed B12 Pro kit on their M sport F30 ? if so how much drop ?
More importantly , which independent shops (MD and VA area) installed them at a reasonable price ? I was quoted $1300 by one shop . this is NOT reasonable and it is higher than the dealership . any good recommendations will be appreciated ! |

Did you check with RRT near Dulles or Aktiv Automotive in Gaithersburg? They're helpful to club members.

I can check with my sponsored shop in Frederick if you want a price, they are very reasonable on the things I have had them do that I didn't want to.
I'm not sure where you are located or how far you are willing to drive.

Just to follow up, I need to get KW V1s installed, so I called a few the well known local places to get quotes on coilover install and alignment. Thought it would be a good idea to post as this seems like a common question. Keep in mind that shops usually quote 50-150 or so less for Springs (not coils).
Induktion - 525 (popular amongst M3 guys; 475 for Springs/alignment) Pure Auto - ~ 500 (well known shop but mostly cater to JDM crowd) Luigi Motorsport - ~550 (including height adjustment; not as well known but was recommended by another member here and from their social media looks like they do a ton of suspension installs (coils and bags)) GT Peace - ~800 RRT - 1k PTuning - ~650 (495 for coils w/out alignment) Premier Autowerks - 1.5k (I suspect they don't do a whole lot of aftermarket work, hence the high price) S2 Dynamics - 1k (and Audi/WV guys claim they have some of the most competitive rates around... guess not) Fleming Auto - 650 w/out alignment GR Motorworks - 500 (new place just opened in Beltsville) Last edited by theEZV; 09-16-2019 at 03:31 PM.. |

FWIW, can you also mention hours?
General rule of thumb is about 1 hour per axle. I sat with Farkle who did a spring swap and it took us just under 5 hours. So 4-5 hours isn't unreasonable for shop labor. Alignment can add an easy 2 hours if done right. So 6-7 hours can add up pretty quick. |
