I dont think theyve ever dealth with a set of fully adjustable coilovers. Im thinking that the coilovers were a strut/spring setup!

idiots...

I had a similar experience yesterday. SInce I got defected for to low, my car has been sitting VERY high. I took it to a Bob Jane where I was working before work and asked them if they could spend the day setting it up. They told me they wouldnt do it cause it would cost to much and take to long. I politely told them that they have no idea how much I expected it would cost and hadnt said how long it would take and now they would never know.
