Default how much labor $ is enough for coil- over install?

i'm about to install my bc coil overs,
i just wanna research the right price for install.
if it's too much, i might have to do it later or do it myself.

how much those of you with coil- overs pay for labor?

They're pretty easy to install, so I would say somewhere around $100-200.

its not that dangerous, just as long as you kno what you're doing you'll be fine. ive shot about 16 shocks myself with hand tools (not s2000's tho) and its not a big deal. you may have to find the nuts and washers that shoot off tho.

the only think i dont like about the buddy clubs is that you have to zip tie the brake lines onto the shock itself (kinda ghetto and not cool of buddy club not to integrate that into their design). the tien's have a bracked that will hold the brake lines. that's why im leaning towards those for now.
