Decided to lower car.

I been contemplating for while now. Even purchase the kit. Bit my friend with shop retired so no lift. I had few surgeries to neck and shoulder so can’t do work. Asked around and people thing cus I went with work clothes to thier shop asking for quote on installation cost. They wanted to really stick it without vasoline.
I just finished a awesome week in Monterey and really loved to see Gen6 5series low. Also I want lite bronze/gold wheels saw a Ferrari white with those color wheels and looked super nice. I would love to even finish my current one same as my interior gold trim color.
Anyways I’m in Los Angels area. Anyone in area have a trust source. Springs for front and links for rear.
Thanks in advance

Wow. Those are 3X higher in price than H&R Spring
Well for my car I need spring for front and link rear.
I have always used HR or Eibach on my BMW. No issue (knock on wood)
HRspring.com also shows online 2 sets of springs but when you get kit just front springs and rear link. Should get mine in week. Track called they were out so shipping straight from HRsprongs.
No hurry still need to find shop in area
