I don't know enough about baggin to comment on that but for a static drop it can run anywhere from free to about $1000. It totaly depends on how low you want to go, the type of kit you buy, if your experienced enough to do it yourself or have a friend to help that is, and if you have the tools to do it yourself. Most drop kits are measured in inches of drop from stock height.
Example
2in rear drop
2in front drop/4in rear drop- 2/4
3/5
4/5
Etc, etc....

That looks to be a 5/7 drop. On the front you will need 2.5 drop spindles, 2in drop springs or cut one round off of the stock springs. On the rear you will need a flip kit, a c-notch, 2in drop shackles, shock extenders or drop shocks. This can be done in a day but being a newbie you might want to spend a day on the front and a day on the rear.

Definitely a must to do your research. There are a lot more specifics to doing this right and SAFLEY than mentioned in this thread.
