   thats a good price, make sure they do it the proper way and hope the bars arent seized up!

   I paid £130 for springs fitting and torsion bars adjusting to match.
   
   This was done the proper way removing the bars which by the way were a total pain in the arse to get free.

   I bought a kit for £205 which was both sets of dampers and front springs. Got it fitted for £150 and lowered bar at same time. Was gonna charge me less but bars were seized.
