Look at it this way: You probably can't swap the parts out yourself. They have the tools, experience, lift, etc. For the $1000, you are getting new parts (hopefully), everything installed properly, and hopefully some kind of guarantee.
What I would suggest that you do is maybe shop around at 2 or 3 other repair shops to get a price. The parts probably cost between $100 and $250 as others have posted here, and the rest is labour. Garages can be flexible on the labour but not always on the parts, so shop around. Make sure you ask about the guarantee, and some kind of proof that the part is new, and genuine too if you care about using only genuine Honda parts.
