Default Lowering my car

I just bought some Eibach Pro-Kit springs, and a BMR Adjustable Panhard bar...I was curious...I would love to install these myself, but I was wondering how long this would take, and what special tools it would require. I have a whole mac toolset, but I'm wondering what tools you need to compress the springs and so fourth...any info would be extremely appreciated!

Also would it be easier just to let a shop install them?

cool man thanks for the offer...yea i did the mid pipe myself...my tip would be work from the back to the front...take off the mufflers and work your way up to the mid pipe...i tried leaving the mufflers on and just taking off the mid pipe but that was a pain in the ***...also when you are done, I would suggest taking it to an muffler shop and checking for leaks....my **** was leaking pretty bad before I took it in...I thought i was gonna die from carbon monoxide! haha
