Craig,
I got mine done for the strut/brake upgrade around 9 months ago and it cost
$195; flat fee for 2hrs & $75 for the 1 page report (exy paper?). I missed that
you were getting seats included the first time i read your post, so that will
make up the difference, prolly he is charging a flat fee of an hour for them (15
minutes work a side though) but still you can't beat them down much as they have
us by the alls.
