I stopped by a local garage two days ago and asked them how much it would be to install Eibach springs and H&R spacers front and back (I had the parts with me for them to look over), and they told me they'd have to do some research to see how long it would take. I just got an email from them, and they said it would take 10 hours (including a 4 wheel alignment). This seems incredibly high to me. They're $80 /hr, so that's $800!

What's a more realistic time for installing springs and spacers? I was thinking more like 2 (to maybe 3) for springs, and 1 - 2 for spacers, but I'm no mechanic, so I don't want to be a jerk and tell them how much me, an average person, though it would take, haha.
