passed a place called wagenworld in college park/laurel area. i heard there was a VW place around there but i'm not sure if that was it. might be an option.
Excellent info! I'll check out the college park & Aberdeen locations, both are an easy drive from here. Frederick's not bad either. I just have to wait for the springs to come in, I only ordered them two day's ago and they are back ordered to boot.
Induktion by far the only shop to consider. Just had my euro springs installed there yesterday. They did a great job and are fantastic people to do business with. Mine ran $275 or so because I had them order me new axle bolts.
i've also had great experience with induktion.
or it'll be cheaper to just find a friend who's done it before and give him or her a few beers in exchange for helping you do it. =D that way you also know how to do it in the future should you decide to go with coilovers.
