Getting coilovers...what to expect upon instal?

I'm getting the KW Variant 2 for my 09 E93 335i and i'm wondering how many hours of labor I should expect to pay for for the installation process? I live in social (oceanside) and I'm wondering if anyone here has any recommendations for a place to instal them for me?

Thanks so much for your input fellers!

suspension installs are usually 200-300 at most tuner shops.

They're actually called LTMW now and they're located in LA. Do a quick search. The owner, Long Tran, is a moderator on this forum.
