Your more than likely capable of doing it yourself if you have a jack and stands.

decent setup. its pretty straight forward if you have the tools or friends that are willing to help, but if you're not mechanically incline and dont have the right tools, search is your friend and read them carefully. we dont want to see a next topic that reads "help i just been boinked by the springs"

if the shock and spring combination go together like they did on my eclipse the setup will ride pretty nice but the shocks will feel a bit underdampened. *

*again, I'm refering to the Pro-kit/Tokico Blue setup on my 98 Eclipse not a honda civic.

edit: oh yea, it'll be easy to do... it's very straightforward if you have the right tools aorund.

No spring compressor needed, just loosen the nut on your OEM stuff and when it is close, shoot it into a 5 gallon bucket
