Not much if u are talking about 09+ models
the new monsters are just a few bolts at least with the higher quality kits
its a 15 min job with no cutting

I don't think much. 15 minutes for measuring and marking. 30 secs with an angle grinder.

Dealer here charges $90/hr in half-hour blocks. They'd probably stretch it to 35 minutes so you'd be looking at $90 for labor (or $45 if you're lucky).
