If you do opt to get a body kit, get it painted, hopefully to match your cars color. This can vary greatly depending on if you want it just factory matched, meaning find out the color code and have a place paint it, or if you want to actually have the other panels painted as well so that the fading through time isn't as noticeable on our old cars. Also, of course it varies on if you want a place to use the cheapest paint or more expensive, it even varies on color choices, and if you buy the paint or if they do. You just have to really call different local places and get quotes.

Save money on installation. Not sure how much shops charge to install them, but most typically known body kits can be installed by you with some to little modification. I've helped install body kits on other cars and it's just as easy as removing the front/rear bumpers and side skirts. You may need to re drill holes and bolt the kit on but "most" can do that themselves, especially if a shop charges a couple hundred to install.
