Installation of SFC's???
I got my Spohn SFC's in last Friday, and am now looking for someone who can install them on my car. Unfortunately I don't have access to a lift, or know how to weld, although I do know people who can weld, but I'd still need the lift. Anyhow, what I wanted to know from the people who have had these installed on their cars was how much you paid to have all the welding done. The instructions recommend a weld every six inches along the rocker panel, which means a good section of the poweder coat would have to be ground off every six inches as well. I'm guestimating that it'd cost around $150 to $200 to have someone do that for me. Anyone have experience in this?

I think there are a few ways to get around the lift problem. You could get four ramps and set the car up on those that way the suspension is sitting correctly. The only bad thing is it makes it a little tight to weld.

Since you're in Central California, come post on the board in the SC3GFB link in my sig. There are several guys up there who have gotten SFC's welded. Or you can drive down to my dad's shop near Disneyland who will install them for about $60-75.
