$150 is the lowest I have seen. I paid $250.
They do not need to remove seats on an E60.
A super-experienced guy could do this in less than two hours, but you should expect 2.5 hours on average. You need to "run away" if someone states that it will take 6.5 hours. I would not trust my car to such a person. I think that the best people to do this job are the ones who sell custom wheels and only work with high end cars. They may charge $250-300, but it is well worth your money.
I have read horror stories of people putting springs on backwards, etc.
Hope this helps.
