Default Lowering Springs Installation

Anyone know of where I should go to get lowering springs installed in Rockland County, Westchester County, Northern NJ area? I could even travel further to some areas of Connecticut as well, near Stamford, or Norwalk. My zip is 10901.

Anyone recommend any places to go and if they have prices? How much would you say is a reasonable price to pay for the install and alignment and whatever else needs to be done. I have to decide which springs to get still.

Thanks man, I appreciate that. That's mad nice of you. What springs do u recommend? I am thinking of getting the kaminari kit down the road so I don't wanna go too low if I get it but I don't know if and when that will happen.

can you use those springs with stock struts?, i have approx 25k on my ride. Also, does it void my extended warranty if I don't use TRD products? I did pay alot to get the 100k warranty so I don't want it to be voided. Can they say like the aftermarket springs caused the problem (if it had something to do with suspension?) Sorry for the noob questions, but I have never modded anything. My biggest mod is tinted windows.

I'd go with either H-Techs or TRD's.
I'm going to drop my car on TRD Shocks and Springs in July, I'm on 18's and plan on going to 19's soon, so that's a good combo IMO.
I'm not a fan of the "Tucked" look.
