I don't know about your car, but usually it's a fairly simple job. Check out whatever section your car is under, there is probably a guide or at least helpful people.

Dealer would always over charge you. I can help you with the DIY, most cars are very similar and it's a simple DIY. If you have a friend who is knowledgeable about cars they can prob help too. I'm guessing you want someone near Stafford VA, car (yr make model)?

There is DIY video in this site and is not that difficult all yo have to do is remove the bumper. If you like we could do it at the hobby shop and you only have to pay for the stall rental for $4.50 for the our. As long you willing to get your hands dirty. If you have a garage that is even better no pay for stall I could invite my friend to bring his TL he is very handy.

This is something you should do yourself. It's one of the easier mods and will get you in the mood to install your own stuff. Trust me, its not hard.

Intakes are a cinch. I have some air tools and regular tools as well.

Go to the Quantico hobby shop if you need a lift.
