English term or phrase: four figures
How to translate it into Polish in a sentence like 'Annual parking fees approaching four figures'? Would 'siegajace liczby czterocyfrowej' be right?

Explanation:
I'd say 'dochodzą do czterocyfrowych liczb' or better 'dochodzą do czterocyfrowych kwot' because it's about money
