It depends if you are doing it yourself or getting a garage to do it..

basic costs for parts though

Subframes range from around £150 - £250 depending whether you go for genuine or reproduction
Throw into that the cost of a fitting kit, which I think is around £20

It is possible to pick them up 2nd hand, we got a good one off ebay for £10, but obviously buying with out seeing is a risk.

I couldn't really have to much of a guess at garage labour but I wouldn't be suprised at £200 or more.
