it's easy to install just the sideskirt. Bodyshop would charge around $100 to $150.

Yeah I can't see a body shop charging more than 2 hrs labor for installing that piece. Hell 1 hr labor would be fair if you had them paint it as well. Your only issue should be, does the paint match. Its a very well made part and looks to be direct bolt-on. It is complete with the wire mesh as well. The only thing that I think is needed is to sand it and prime it, however sanding may not be needed. I don't know as im not a bodyshop expert.

They are EXTREMELY easy to install, even for someone that has never even thought of installing a pair of skirts.

Cool, thanks guys. So no one has had to get any special body work done on their greddy skirts? you know how body shops always say "it's aftermarket, we have to do a lot of prep work on these fiberglass parts(fill in pinholes, sand seam lines, etc)?"

That is 100% true.
