Not quite $6 million but parts alone by my estimates are $550 plus $80 for an alignment plus $320 for a set of rear tires. Merry **** Christmas

Sorry to see your list. My list ...

Install Addco front and rear.
Cut front coil, adjust rear air height
Alignment
Install UDP's
Install new oil pressure sensor and gauge so they are real.
Oil change
Repair minor leak on differential

Maybe ...
Install new Cryo rotors, hawk pads and steel braided lines on all four corners.

This is to make it handle and stop almost go my satisfaction. I have the week between Christmas and New Years off. All I need is a day.

Mileage 37k.

Thanks!

A day! I think your underestimating your list. It took me an hour just to swap the oil pressure gauge face and needle. If yo haven't already done so you need to remove the flags but I would go one step further and file the camber slot in towards the motor so you can get all of the camber adjustment the adjustment bolt will give you. To do this you have to push the rack forward to get the bolts out but that will be a day alone. But if your cutting a coil you will want to do this while you have the suspension apart.

Yeah, a day. I have access to a shop and a second pair of hands.

The alignment may not be done same day, different shop but everything else is pretty simple.

I did sway bars, strut bars, springs, struts and all new mounts in 6 hours (2 people) on my SHO. Just takes time ... Course when I did this, no wife and no kids.
