How many hours to change out 3 parts
Hey everyone, I just sold my 2002 Acura CLS to my fiance and I need to put the factory headers, sways and springs back on it. I talked with a shop today and they told me that they charge by the hour, and that the max it would cost me is $400 to change out the 3 parts. Does anyone know how many hours it would be to change out those 3 parts.
Thanks
Scott

Umm, can I ask why it's going back to stock if it's going to your fiance? Seems like eventually it's going to be both of yours soon. ![Dunno](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/dunno.gif)
Regardless, none of it is hard to do. Just DIY.

The reason that I am taking it off is becuase she doesnt need any of that on there, and I have an 03 acura cl 6 speed, and I want to sell the items, so I can get my supercharger in a week or two. Plus, the car has ground effects on it, so the front lip is lowered, in which with the springs on, I can see her already hitting something and damaging the front of the car. At this time, she wants to keep the lip. I would do it myself, but the problem is that the car is so low to the ground becuase of the ground effects, that I will need a lift to be able to take them off.

400 is cheap ...the headers are worth 100$ to the DIY'er and springs are a pain ...if it were the shocks with springs much easier...those would be worth 200$ to me so are the sways worth 100$? prolly not ,but this is a garage not a friend helping you out

400 is a bargain, To swap those parts out, I would say it would be 3 hours min with a lift and the right tools. If you do it yourself for the first time, I would say it will take you easily 7-10 hours with no air tools.
