cost for installation of coilovers
i just got my ground control coilovers and i was wondering if anyone has had these installed at a shop. i am just looking for a ball park figure, i am taking it to JoTech in the Dallas area so if you have been there it would be even better, but just give me some cost that you guys have paid. thanks

It is only a few bolts, but you will still need an alignment and if you are using adjustable coilovers you may want corner balancing, at the least time consuming, at the worst a pain the the *** if you dont know what you are doing.
I was quoted about $300 if memory serves from a local Honda dealership and a couple other local shops. I ended up getting a Honda tech to install my HFP non-adjustable coilovers and do the alignment for $100 off the clock. That was a great deal for both of us. I paid less, he made more and I got it done in about 75 minutes and didnt have to spend a whole Saturday trying to re-attach my trailing arms.

its not the fact that i dont know how to do it i would just rather not have to deal with it and just pay, i did springs on my 02 4dr and it is a very similar set-up with MacPherson strut and rear double wishbone so i think i am just going to do what you guys said and do it myself, thanks for the help!
