So I finally broke down and dropped my car off at the mechanic I usually use to install the cooling system, CCV, Plugs, tensioners, belts and oil change. I bought all OEM parts for around $1200 and labor was $1500. Unfortunately, the control arms and bushings were shot, so it cost me another $900 in parts and labor - so all in today it was $3600. Sad part is I have only driven the car 2K miles in 5 years and it just hit 52K miles - I guess garage art isn't cheap.
