Default Labor Charges ??

Hello so I picked up my bike last night from its winter make over ( pix to come)
Wanted to hear your thoughts on what you think the labor should have cost to do what I had done
Ok so
Had progesive drop in lower fork springs installed
Ricor INTIMINATORS installed
Chrome Lower Legs

Ricor VIBRANATOR installed
Avon Air coushiend grips installed

Chrome outer primary installed
Chrome Cam cover installed

All fluids changed

What would you think labor charge should have been ?
Thanks for your thoughts

My guess is about 8 hrs. labor.

Depending on the labor rate I would say it cost between $600-$800.
