Default Body shop pricing on color changing a hatch?

I've got a new hatch with an SS spoiler going on. The whole hatch is going on because I had the good fortune of acquiring a rear defroster out of the deal, which I didn't have before. However, as my car is black, I doubt the red hatch and spoiler with the 2002 SS racing stripes will look very good unpainted. Anyone have any ideas on how much a good quality color change would run me?

A higher end body shop is only charging me 350 to paint my new hood, front bumper, and head lights. It shouldnt run you too much, just depends on if they have to take everything apart to paint it.

Is that including the prep work? The hatch is off the car, and I'll take the spoiler off for them so they can paint the two pieces seperately, all they'll have to do is prep work and masking...

I need to get my hood painted and was considering doing the front bumper covers and headlight covers, also. $350 is a real good price. Would you mind sharing the name of the paint place? Please.
