Rep Power: 319 it'll be cheaper to get the tools and install urself...most shops on average will charge $150-$250 depending on the shop...i just went to autozone got some jackstands, tie rod seaparator, and a socket set for less than $60 and autozone rents torque wrenches and spring compressors for free...they just loan it than give u all the money back when u return it in 5 days or less...and u can always renew...the tie rod separator was 10 bucks and after im done im returning it and even the jackstands u can return...all you really need is a basic heavy duty ratchet set and things u can return after u used them...if you need any help just check the DIY or pm me or robbclark
^^ lol yea they kinda have a few scuff marks here and there I guess from shipping but still good.
I have an 05 EM2

follow the spring install DIY thats located somewhere on this forum. the shock/strut should be a no brainer for the person who knows basic suspension components and install. its just monkey work with basic socket wrenches and maybe an alen key.
as for the camber kit, i forgot. but you'll see the stock camber on the rear and basically go from their by unbolting the OEM one and reinstall the SPC in reverse order from the way you removed the OEM camber kit.

Rep Power: 319 for the crash bolts on the front (where the strut connects to the brake) those holes need to be enlargened from 14mm to 16mm with a drill...its easy just get a 16mm drill bit and do it yourself...other than that everything should fit plus for the spc camber kit did u get the front bolts in 14 or 16mm cuz they should be 16mm ( i have am 04 em2 so i've done some research)

Rep Power: 374 be a real man and use the spring install DIY 
its not that hard really, you just need a breaker bar and a few sockets, maybe a spring compressor.

Rep Power: 319 everyone with 03-05 civics have to drill the holes on the struts larger to 16mm 01-02 is good to go...blues do come in 16mm for the 02 - 05 si/siR but the steering arm is slightly different and its easier to drill out the crashbolts than the steering arm...im putting my d specs on today!!! w00t im gonna take a **** load of pics
