Test Pipes Installation

Do it your self dude, put that 2-3 hours of labor rip off in to more mods. If you do not have the tools then invest that 300 bucks now

If you do not have the tools then invest that 300 bucks now and they will pay you back over time, if you need a guide for doing the TP's , look on here, there is a lot of information to be had.

I have done it soo many times now the last change took 45 min flat.
First time, granted was a biatch, but hey I and many have dealt with that.

GL which ever you decide, and to finally answer your original ?, I would say 150 from a shop would be fair.

I would do them myself but Im at my parents summer house in Florida, which has no tools. I'm here once every 3-4 years so the investment in the tools probably would not be worth it and I dont have a garage where I live to store them. Im all for the DIY though and would if it made sense.

With a lift and proper tools I thought it would be a 1 hour job. Idk why shops are quoting me so much.
