Need Shop in the Bay Area to change springs

Hi Guys! Been a long time since I've posted up on here. I'm looking for a reputable shop (preferably in the east bay or SF, I live in Oakland) that would be able to swap out my springs. I had lowering springs put on a couple years ago and I wanna put the OEM's back on. The one local shop I called quoted me 5 hours, which is ridiculous. BavarianX down in socal only took an hour or so to do the job. Anyone know of a good shop that won't try to rip me off?
