Mechanic around NOVA

I've only been taking my car to the dealer since I've moved down to the DC Metro area (Fairfax). I bought some upgraded OE suspension parts but I need a good mechanic to install them. The dealer is going to break me on the labor charge, and I'm not even sure they'll accept my parts (even though they're sealed OE factory parts).

Anyone know of a good, reliable, and fair mechanic around Fairfax (Manassas, Reston, Herndon) who can install all four springs/shocks/struts. I've gotten two estimates from two random placed for $650, which is almost dealer pricing.

Much appreciated.

Re: Mechanic around NOVA

Hey! Haven't lived in NOVA for years, but I found an apparently current listing for a GREAT (translate honest) mechanic on Rt. 7 in Vienna... Datsun Dynamics. I hope they're still there.

Good luck.
