Vendor NEW: MPP Model 3 Comfort Adjustable Coilovers RWD/AWD!
- Thread starter MountainPass
- Start date
The Comfort Adjustable kit will definitely hit all the marks! The softest setting is softer than the non-adjustable version, so if going as soft as possible is a really high priority, it may be worth it to take the jump to the Comfort Adjustable kit.
Both of them ride and handle great of course, so I wouldn't say you'd be making a mistake going either direction

Thanks, I called, very nice man, but quoted me $1,500 for install, 12 hours of labor. He acknowledged they don’t do these often and isn’t the fastest installer. I was thinking ~$100 hour x 3-4 hours, is that reasonable for coilovers?
Wow, that is super expensive! I would say the average with alignment is $600-800, and I have seen as low as $400 and as high as $1200. It really depends on the shop, but I only recommend places that our customers have been and can personally vouch for. I am sure there are other shops in your area that work on modified cars. The suspension on the Model 3 is very similar to an Audi A4, so I like to recommend looking for a VW/Audi shop that installs aftermarket parts. This is a great starting point and they are also used to paying attention and doing a good job for that client base!
thanks, I trust they do quality work, but whenever I pay hourly I don’t want to feel like a training exercise, at my expense LOL. I’ll search around for a few other options.

Wow. It took us 8 doing my coilovers and front control arms... which includes pizza breaks and we’re also just some backyard hacks lol
I've seen the MPP Spec recommendations for these, but I'd lover to hear some recommendations from those of you that have played around with the adjustments. thoughts on adjustments, and changes to drop? Getting mine installed very soon. I'll also have a lip kit

Also in NoVA & Considering doing this -- how did your install go, and are you happy with the ride comfort?
