Total: $5,720 + shipping + install
Read that the RE rear toe arms aren't worth it. Go Manzo (same manufacturer as Megan) for $125ish. I'm going with the Whiteline subframe bushing inserts, purchased for $50. They won't be as good as full replacements, but much less labor and cost. The FA500 coils are around $1600 the way I worked them out.

I'd hold off on the sway bars, and arms for a bit and focus on the weak points. Springs, struts, rear subframe bushings and rear toe arms. That's my strategy this round.
