all depends on who does it. i'll do it for like 40 bucks. a shop should charge like an hour or so of labor so anywhere from 65 bucks to 110 bucks depending on where you live and what kinda shop it is.

Should be around $50 and that was a shaddy TOYOTA technician doing it. I had another set put on mine by a tire shop owner and he did it for $30.

A regular shop will charge at least an hour unless you know the owner and can get it done cheaper.

I just finished editing my DC Header tutorial... It's not a hard install, if you have the tools and the time to do it.

Here's my tutorial (DC Sports):
