Default How much for new shocks for a 99 AU Fairlane ?

Hey all
The fairlane is up for new shocks, and i was just wondering what sorta money am i looking at for replacing all four ?
It looks like the self levelling suspension has been disconnected, or taken out.
The car sits pretty low at the back, pretty much level with the front, and i dont mind this, because it looks gr8.
Only thing is when the car has 3-4 people in it, it bumps and scrapes .
I got new tyres for the car recently, but the ride is very bumpy , the front shocks are definitely goone.
While i was at the tyre shop, the guy there told me he would change all four for $1100. Thats seems quite steep...
So what do you all reckon is a fair price for 4 new shocks ? 6/99 fairlane ghia
and which brands do you recommend ?
Thanks

Tony
