Whatever makes him happy.

Really??

You just said you charge $2000 labor to install a basic lift... Or is that factoring in the time to go back after to flip every part over and re-install everything that was backwards or upside down?!

Man...they might as well shoot me as tell me that. I guess you'll need to add some Bailey's to make it safer. Cheers.

On average most shop around the greater Los angels area.

Average labor rates in Souther California are about 100.00 bucks an hour. Expensive out here lol.

I got a 44 Oz big gulp of Dr Pepper already going and about 3 lung darts deep for the day. Maybe I'll work on these head lights today but then again it is my day off my go to the beach or visit the family fab shop.

What do you think I should do?

Labor rates in SoCal are significantly lower.... Maybe a high end shop posts that kind of rate, but no one actually pays it if they are smart enough to ask.

And that's the high end with a brand and reputation.

Someone working out of the back of another company's stereo shop... IDK, might be a bit ambitious to look at Rebel and EVO as your competition.
