sounds a wee bit on the high side, but if the shop is reputable using high quality paint and stuff then I say go for it

it should be cheaper if they are adding the lip in addition to other parts you want painted

I paid $350 to have my whole kit painted...MT/Stillen. I'd say 200 is high, but if its a good job its well worth it. $350 was just for paint I mounted it myself.
