As title says. How much would you pay a shop to do the bushings? How much should I expect to be bent over? Issue is its my only car so I need it done in one shot since I work an hour from home.

Guess you mean installed. Here in Dallas, Tx. around 600.00. If thats all you do. RTABS. Links, sway brackets,etc. will run the cost up. If your whole rear needs refreshing at an Indy shop I'd say your looking at around 1.2-1.6k.
DIY the job would run you maybe 300.00 for new OEM. I see your in Chicago. Probably about the same there I would imagine.

Most public libraries in America have "AllData" access. You can look up "book time", or just call a few shops. Ask what their hourly charge is AFTER you ask them for the labor times.
Some shops will not stick to the quoted labor times, some will. If it says 2 hours in alldata, you should be able to get the labor done for $200ish.
