new strut rubbers and bearings for front, rear usually nothing extra, doing it yourself check for sensors attached to suspension parts, good luck rear easy, front went to my fav front end shop for finish install + 4 wheel alignment

Thanks, I got it done anyways.. time consuming, but worth it. Way more comfort now thankfully.. coilovers aren't suited to the roads over here! And after all that I think it needs a cv joint! Anyways it'll have to do for a while.

Thanks for the reply.. I knew there was more to it than what I thought..
