Coil-over install
eh $300? $500? $10 and a handjob?
No one is going to really know what your shops charge per hour in your area, I would wager anywhere from 2-4 hours of charge time to get it done.
Keep in mind you need an alignment too afterwards.

Just rent a spring compressor from advance man, in the end you get your money back. It took me an afternoon by myself with only one floorjack and ratchet. It's easy, if you know how to change your oil then you can do it, plus there's plenty of diy tutorials online to be found. Just curious but what kinda coilovers you got? Ebay sleeves or something nice?
Done the coil over generally to the vehicle is the suspension. best way to do this is to pick up a tuned coil over suspension of you vehicle. where the spring and shock combo have been specially tuned for the car to work.

And I would wait till you have enough for the struts as well and do everything at once because your stock struts will eventually blow on a decent drop. and in order to install the springs you need a spring compressor to take apart your oem struts for all 4, and to install the new ones in all 4. then when you get your new struts you need to use the spring compressor to take of your new springs off all 4 oem struts and then reinstall on your new struts. make sense? basically its alot of extra work if your doing it yourself or alot of extra money if you pay a shop to do it.
