Sorry but I think u forgot about LABOR

Traditionally, it's customary for a "labour" charge to be quoted for a whole job. It's not proper form to sit there and charge someone individually for labour on each part (especially when changing a spring guide once the mechbox is already open takes all of 5 seconds, maybe 20 w/ lube (and there is ALWAYS time for lube)) and generally try and rip the customer off.
