i asked around a couple shops, one quoted me $800, one $500 and one $240. They all came with no warranty because the material has to be sanded down and isnt easy for the paint to stick on. I went with the $240 one because my friend knows the guy who owns the place and its not like its a crap place. They did a good job too and even though everyone warned me that rock chips would chip off my paint. I havent had any chipping yet (knock on wood) and its been over a year.

Side note: the front lip is attached to the front bumper, the others can just be taken off by themselves. Hope that helps
