they had a second one come up that was supposed to happen in mid june for the koni and groundcontrols. At the end of May shox.com said that koni had found out that they were too cheap and they had to raise the price to $600, and the group buy message was pulled. I was still waiting for all the details of the thing and getting the okay that it was time to order when it got canceled. After the message was pulled I tried anyway but the price was $600. I was kinda ticked, but what can you do.

They wanted to just leave it open so whenever anybody wanted them you could get em. But Koni announced a price change in Mid May which shox.com knew about in Feb. so they were not able to continue the price to all CEG'ers. Sorry to hear the bad news...

So the guy working there must have messed up big time when he told me they do install work..Why he looked on his computer and gave me a price for my Contour is anybody's guess. But anyways, he referred her to a shop called DJ Performance. So my wife calls up the shop and asks how much. Get this! He says for 4 struts and 4 springs plus front alignment and toe in/out is [b]$160. My wife then calls me and I can't believe the price so she calls again and he tells her again the same price and explains very respectfully to my wife exactly what needs to be done for my Tour. He said a rear alignment is not necessary on a FWD car (unless it has been in a frame altering accident). Here's the info for those who want to get them installed for a good price. He works alternate weekends with this weekend being a work one.

My wife did all the legwork so I am giving her credit for this deal.
