    to be honest. from personal experience, take it to a shop and watch them do it if its your first time lol.

    you should read your car service manual on how to remove/install.
    you should get the tools ready before you try diy.

    you shouldn't try to do diy without doing the 2 stuff i mentioned above.

    anyone would agree with me that installing coilovers are easy. having someone else to install them is a waste of money.
    tuning them on the car is a different matter i guess.

    What do you mean by tuning? damper settings or alignment settings?. When you say you want to do it right the first time, get the car aligned to your specific settings and corner balanced.

    in general, if you want the car to oversteer more, up the rear dampers and lower the fronts. If you want it to understeer vice versa.
