Great, thanks for the info. I was also just thinking about doing the front end, since the rear is apparently especially difficult because of the welded quarter panels.

Sounds like the biggest issue for me would be the side skirts (I'm pretty comfortable with electrical work, so I wouldn't mind tinkering with the sidemarkers... and it seems like the brake ducts didn't have a huge functional problem). 20 hours of labor sounds like a lot of money, and it sounds intricate enough so that I'd probably screw it up if I tried to do it myself. Maybe I should talk to some of the local shops to see what they could do...
