Default How long to install these bolt ons ?

I just recieved the following bolt-ons for my 02 M6 Z28.

-Fast Toys lid & KN filter
-Fast Toys Ram Air
-BM Ripper shifter
-SLP skip shift elim

What would be a reasonable amount of time for me to be billed by a mechanic to have these installed on my car.

Please don't tell me to install them myself, I am mechanically retarded <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Even if you are mechanically retarded you can install these yourself in under 30 mins.
-Fast Toys lid & KN filter
-SLP skip shift elim

Bring the mods with to a local cruise or car show. Everything you have listed are very easy jobs that could be completed there with the help of the other car guys.

Hop to your area's board and see if there is anyone near you who will help you out.

I would feel like I was robbing anyone if I asked for money to install those mods
