I never figured the exact amount but to do my mini tub but figure on buying the coilovers shocks and mounts, mini tub kit, sheet metal work for back seat area you are probably in the $1500-2k range for parts and labor. Remember that does not inlclude wheels and tires or having your rearend narrowed. To do a full backhalf will be more because you will need to also buy rear framerails, crossmember, 4link or ladder bars, rearend shortened a bunch (figure on using a 9in) new axles and possibly brakes etc etc etc. You get the idea, it can add up in a hurry. BTW if you are asking this question don't even try to do it yourself. This is not a job that you want to have done wrong. The handling and safety of your car depends completely on doing the job the RIGHT way. You can look at my project in progress on a general idea of what you will looking at. BTW I did not have my rear narrowed at all.
