ther is smudges around the back of the midsole that WONT come out
and the area below the toebox just plain looks dirty and wont come clean, ive tried sport-white shoe cleaner stuff, and a bleach pen, both with hardly any good results.

Any suggestions or advice?

First try scrubbing with warm water and some soap then if that doesnt work try lightly applying rubbing alchohol with a cotton ball Q-tip etc.

Someone else may better be able to price the job but... You're looking at 40 hours of work. If you were willing to work for $5 per hour, that would be $200. I would guess reconstructers charge between $200 and $300 for a pair (This price includes common materials but not the cost of a base). You could PM artists who do recons if you want a second opinion.
