Default Changing all fluids

Okay guys so I am looking to get all the fluids in my car redone by a shop in my area. I am going to shop around soon and see what different places will do all the work for. How much is a fair price to get all the fluids in my SC redone by a shop? Also, if I get all the fluids redone with OEM Toyota fluids, (except for the oil cause I do that myself), will it help the performance at all in my car? How hard is it to change out the fluids in the SC300 anyway? I am just looking to get all this done because I have owned my SC for 8 months now and haven't changed anything but the oil and I'm not really sure when the last time the rest of the fluids were changed, and I'm trying to do it before anything breaks lol. Any help? Thanks.

do it yourself though and save an arm and a leg. undo the tranny line and flush it that way at home and drain the radiator( peacock at bottom of radiator by tranny lines just opposite side of radiator ) brake flush have a buddy help and power steering use a turkey baster or undo the line also
