front rear or both? could be expensive if they are fitting peice into the front. may take some time,
I think it took me hours to carve them out once, minimal tools in a driveway.
2 peice are alot easier to fit into the front like nolathane, ive also fitted 1 peice superpro
into the front aswell, hard took approx 20 shots/45mins to get in 1 side.
had to press them in using a block of wood and a wind up jack from the rad support and a crap load
of bush grease. tourqe the bolts back up with load on them.
maybe get a mechanic mate to help.

A workshop could take 2/3hours labour or even more or less if doing front and back,
plus parts maybe 50-100 front and 50-100 rear or even more retail.
