I have been quoted anywhere from 4 hours to 8 hours, depending on the shops I call. My estimates have varied from $120 to over $720 and everywhere in between, just for the install, not including wheel balance. Anyone who's had H&R sport springs installed on their E60, please let me know how long it took you or your shop and if it required any special removal of the rear seat or any other unusual parts. Thanks!

I think I will go with the $120 install. From what I've read, you are right. It should only take 2 to 3 hours at most and cost no more than $200. I am totally getting ripped at $720 by BMW! Thanks.
