Shop recommendation for installing springs in OC?

I am looking for shop recommendations for installing springs.

Are there any shops that might have either Tein, H&R, or Eibach springs in stock?

thanks in advance

Supreme Power in Placentia, right by the 57 and 91. great guys, and they make sure you're handled right. Can honestly say that Eric loves what he does.

Or BavarianX in Brea. Also great guys. I've been a long time customer of theirs.

You'll be satisfied with either choice above. Good luck!

any chance those shops can replace bearings on the front wheel of an E36? I'm having problems with mine (i think thats what is causing the weird sounds).. and want to find a cheaper than dealer repair solution.

Thank you very much!!

I just had the Eibach prokit installed by CEA 3. My review from other thread:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just had the springs installed by CEA 3 (Charlie). Stand up guy, absolute best pricing possible for installation. Charlie also painted my brake calipers for me. Highly recommended to any SoCal Bimmer owners who need work done.

Pics are were taken 1 hour after install. The ride quality is not much different than stock. Alignment once the springs settles.

It lower about .8~1 inch on front, the drop is subtle, not too slammed. If I can do it over again, I do the same.

The ride quality is very much same as stock. No complaint here.

Charile/CEA 3 did an amazing job, not even a single warning light on dash like I read from many other thread after installing springs.

A few better shots on day two:
