Try to find a local place to do it. A friend of mine had almost everything on his 400EX done for a little over $200.

200 is about right. But that also depends on what colors your wanting. Candy or dormant colors are going to be more labor intensive and material is going to be higher so the cost will go up higher than a base color like black, red, blue etc.

Most shops do their own blasting to get the "platform" to their tastes.

They should plug everything off but I would mention it to them just to be sure they dont "forget"
