each shop is going to be different. I've gotten estimates from $500-$1000 just to paint some sideskirts =O i've heard it's cheaper on the west coast but expect somewhere around $1000 for a full kit.

Its also alot of work to get them to fit properly. You have to remember that when a shop does work on a vehicle and then leaves, their name is permanently attached to that work. If they see (or expect) issues that need to be addressed to meet their standards you can expect a slightly higher price. Some shops don't care once it leaves, but the higher quality guys definitely care about something other people will see and make their own opinons on.
Edit: Always ask to see some of their work (in person, custom or not). this gives you an accurate idea of what to expect from them as an avg. customer.
