Default Cost to install springs?

I am getting an Eibach prokit out on and I got quoted a price of $300 to put the springs on and have an alignment. I thought the price sounded a little high, and wanted to know what other got charged for similar work. Bear in mind the springs were not purchased from them, and my options on places i slimited becasue most shops won't do an alignment when they won't be able to put it back to specs.

Free DIY

$300 seems much find someone local that will do it for cheap. Might ask someone in the Regional forums.

torque wrench, 12,14,17mm sockets and an extension, 17mm wrench, and some vice gips, jackstands, and use the jack from the car to help you lift certain parts when reinstalling the bolts, took me no more than 3 hours with hand tools, easier than hondas and toyotas

$100-$150 is about right for a spring installion
