What's the average price a shop charges to install aftermarket springs? Planning on buying some, like right now, but it depends on how much install is.

Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.

Don't do springs without new struts, you'll regret it in the long run.

By "new", do you mean aftermarket, ore new OEM, which I planned on. Can you explain what regrets I would have?

I think they meant aftermarket, since lowering springs will eventually ruin stock struts. If your old struts are not in great shape, this would be the time to swap, but otherwise you should be fine, I have 80k since I replaced mine with OEM, and they are fine. It's just unusual for a CEGer to get new OEM spec springs.
