if you prep the connectors, grinding off the powder coat so they can weld clean.
and prep the frame in the same fashion.
it should be about an hour of time on the rack. really isn't hard once they are prepped.
and make sure they weld them up using a drive on rack, with full weight on the wheels. otherwise they may weld a tweak into the frame.

Hello,
Depending on the shop and location the average cost is $80-$150
With our set-ups there is no grinding or modifying needed and they go right in place... this means no additional labor for you to have to pay for Or we have the bolt in set-ups as well which you can do yourself and have welded at a later date.
We quoted a customer $80 to install a set of a competitors SFC's thinking it would be a quick easy install... well we were wrong. There SFC's did not fit well and required a lot of grinding and prying to get them in place. This changed his install price but he understood since he was there and saw the poor fitment. Needless to say he bought the rest of his suspension from UMI
Hope that helps!

Thanks for the quick answer! My car is a daily driver that will see the drag strip maybe twice a year or so. I just want to tighten things up a bit, so the bolt-in ones sound like they would work in my situation.

I was not referring grinding paint or powder coat as "grinding"... this is something the buyer should know if they have any type of fabrication ability or knowledge... we are referring to grind metal on the car or item to get it to fit in place or a hole to line up. We have seen some companies items not fit well causing the buyer to do modifying for a proper fit.

No you do not... the installation can be completed very easily in your driveway with a jack, jack stands and basic hand tools. Not fancy tools or lift needed and depending on your experience and skills the install can be completed in a 1/2 hour - 1 hour. The bolt on kits include all hardware needed and detailed installations instructions with pictures.
4WOFURY- Due to vehicle tolerances we do make the holes slightly larger for a guaranteed fit on every vehicle. Install all bolts in the SFC and center the bolts in the holes and tighten. Also center the SFC in the indent in the floor of the car and make sure its not rubbing the floor anywhere before tightening.
If I can help anymore please ask. Thank you!
