Unless you are totally inept at working on cars, it is a pretty easy DIY.

Compression Rod bushings will run you about $150.

Endlinks will cost about the same for the front, rear is a little less.

Two of the best things you can do to any of the first gen G35s to restore the stock feeling to the suspension.

Not inept but don't have the proper tools besides a wrench and a jack.

If I recall correctly. The bushings are a fraction of the cost to replace the entire compression rod. I have had both done. Endlinks are a DIY task if you have a lift.
