$350-$400 each, in my experience.

Paid $1200 OTD for Kuruma Z front and klumyzee Impul sides. Would've been a bit less if the Kuruma Z wasn't such a pain to prep and paint. Of course this is in the Maryland/DC area where prices for these things are inflated like crazy.

I paid $300 for my front. I have no idea on sides, but M1 offers to paint them for $350.

It really, completely, depends on what shop you go to. Some shops are super critical and charge lots of $ for labor, some shops work faster, cut corners, and are cheaper. Some shops are cheaper and good, some are expensive and bad, it really depends, lol!

Depends where you are and the experience the bodyshop has with fiberglass / poly urethane parts

the parts you have are all fiberglass and there really isnt much to it except cleaning the surface -> primer -> paint

you should be paying around $600-$800 if you're in southern california, unfortunally I cant speak for everyone else outside of this market
