Incompetent Monkey or not?

Yes, there will be huge problems, you really need to find someone competent
with fabrication.  First off, the struts are removed and the stock spring
seat is cut off, and a ring welded in its place.  The threaded sleeves need
to be pressed on due to an interference fit.  Its not a bolt on mud flap type
of job, make sure they know exactly what they are getting into before you
drop the car off.  Even here in the San Jose / Bay area, there are only a
handful of shops that I would think could even do it, the few of them race
shops that do this kind of fabrication.  I do it myself (and have done it on
4 or 5 other cars too), much easier than trying to find an incompetent shop,
or one who just wants to bolt parts on and off.  Good luck with it.
