I got my housings from www.awe-tuning.com. Right now they are $360 a pair, but you can get them cheaper with sales and such (I think I paid under $300). They are a decent bit brighter with nice defined light patterns.

Paint supplies 13.7 hrs @ 21/hr $287
Body supplies 16.3 hrs @ 2/hr $32
total + including tax $2556.37

I'm not that surprised at the number. I think it was about that much when I got rear-ended in my Rodeo and had to have the liftgate skin replaced. The surprising thing is how the parts are only 20% of the total.
