well me and my friend mark just put spacers on my car yesterday the backs took like 30 minutes to an hour for both. things just went smoothly. the fronts we worked on from about 10-2 stupid spring compressor kept slipping. anyways it shouldn't be more then 4 hours for anyone knowing what there doing, I'd suggest finding another shop that is more competent in spring installs.

oh also regarding your spacers, it depends on the spacers 25mm in the rear will be slip on and you should have no worries they can do this while they are putting the rims back on the vehicle aka like 5 minutes per side... if the fronts are lower then 20 mm then the stud replacement is necessary and idk how long that takes, if the fronts are Exactly 20mm there is some grinding that needs to be done to get it to fit correctly, or as others have said you can attempt to sandwich a 3mm plate in there, but i wouldn't recommend it.
