its 300 for all 4 and since Apexi WS are discontinued, why not... mite as well get some good out of it while i still can... and i read the fine print on a couple sites, a lot of companies recommend to rebuild coilovers every 2-3 years... it sucks to buy a full suspension and it doesn't last long...

what the price getting it done?why u rebuilding it? just wondering. ^__^

i love them but they are a tad bit firm for my taste so i called apex and they said they can help me with that. and plus the upper seals started to leak on one of them so they are gonna fix that too. they are gonna give me a softer spring for the front because i think the rate is 10/6 so they are gonna valve them for 8/6

300 plus new springs and hardware... definitely not bad at all... and with the downtime of the car, it will allow me to work on other things
