Default Colour Code

Was looking into getting my 99WRX colour coded (side skirts, rear pods, door handles + mirrors) how much have people paid for this? And can anyone recommend a good place to have it done?
Thanks

i was gonna have the old man do mine, but he rekons that paint doesn't like sticking onto the factory skirts, as when it chips huge flakes come off and it looks crap, but the rest, as far as i know the mirrors are quite cheap, if in decent nick, and separated from the car, doesn't take up unneccesary floor space, roughly 50 each mirror, door handles i'd expect to be similar...

need to prime the skirts and stuff first which can cost a little more.

when i originally purchased my bonnet (converted front to 99 shape from 96) mine was black. It looked alright from a distance but i soon grew tired of it and forked out the dough to colour code it
