Minneapolis-area shops for F80 camber plates

A coworker of mine just picked up an F80 M3 and needs to get his Ground Control camber plates installed. He started calling around and is getting quotes of 10+ hours of labor which is a huge red flag that these shops have no idea what they're doing, or are just a rip-off.

Can anyone recommend some decent shops in or around Minneapolis that can handle this for the 2-3 hours it ACTUALLY takes?

I know this is the E92 forum but I'm trying to cast a wide net since some of you have since made the switch. :-)

Check out these shops below - I've used them when I lived in the area and have nothing but nice things to say about them.

Imola Motorsports - Plymouth

JB Eurotech - Shoreview

Thanks. Eurotech was the one quoting him the $1200, actually. They claim they need to pull the full front end, which they really don't. A friend of mine had it done here at Fall-Line for like 3 hours of labor.

Well thats just silly.

Maybe try again, and ask for Seth, he was a pretty sensible guy.
I would get an estimate from Imola Motorsports too. They did good work and made it right when I wasn't satisfied with the work (alignment) they did.

Imola wants less but the price still seems high. I guess we're spoiled here in Chicago.
