Tell them that you don't want the work done and bring it home and fix it your self, don't let them slap you around like a little bitch.

The only bushings they could have replaced would have been the swaybar bushings...there's 25 dollars in parts right there..so 100 to install, you could replace them in the driveway with the tires on the ground...get your car back.
