Dude. You're going to pay $540 for a CP and FMIC install?!

Im not trying to be cool when I say they were VERY easy and straightforward to do... on my back in the garage. Even easier with a proper lift.

Simple hand tools and a pair of ramps from Walmart is all you need. I promise you could you it on your own without a doubt.
It may be easy and straightforward, but you can't accurately put a value on his time and effort. I've had many occasions where I said "I can't afford my own time" and paid someone to do something for me when I could do it myself.
Fair enough...

For two hours time, we can assume he makes $250+ per hour. That seems realistic.
