i have no idea on a price it varies greatly but to help on cost why not attempt some of the work i.e fittin the kit yourself that way u can say u played a part in it too and save ureself some money
ive got a bumper project goin on at the min and hopefully when ive done i will just be a case of gettin it painted then il fit it myself too

well wot i did was get hold of a cheap any colour any condition rear bumper and then fit my valance and then im goin to do some smoothin and make a number plate recess fingers crossed. if it goes wrong i stil have the original bumper on the car and if it goes right i can sell it as its in a1 condition. then to actually fit the bumper back cant be hard, would be same as takin it off but in reverse

A couple of issues, bodywork is hard. Shops might charge more elsewhere to make up for the loss in you doing work. They'll also charge more to fix damage rather then fit stuff in the first place. You're also not insured against damage to your car when you're working on it.
