It's roughly 3 hours worth of labor ~ cost is probably $250-$400 (higher end shops). make sure your installer follows directions especially on how to adjust the height since it's not the same as normal coilovers that they are probably use to.

Where are you located? There is a indy tech in NJ who might be able to do. His name James Clark. Just do a search on his name, you will find his contact info.
