The body shop guy quoted me about $400 a piece before any labour or paint.
Is it worth it for a daily driver (2002) with only 90K on it?...especially when I see something like this:

Just keep driving it till it falls apart. It won't pass safety so you can't really get a lot of cash if you were to sell it.

It is worth it just not at that price. I got mine welded on for $300 labour (both sides) with me supplying the parts. I bought the primed rockers for 120 each (I get a good discount) and another 30 bucks or so for primer, undercoating, and other supplies) - so basically less than $600.
