I do realize that they would have to mask off all the exterior of the panels to protect them from the powder.
My first quote just came in this morning, it would include the 3 hard drive brackets, the motherboard tray and the 5x5.25 dvd holder, all on both sides and they want $244.00 for the job.

I have no idea of how much high heat masking costs.

Do you think that price is high?
I presume thats 244 CAD??? . I would suggest that you keep looking around. I am able to get my entire 343b powder coated glossy black for about 50 USD incl. the HDD cages and what not. If you want to keep down on prices though, you might want to hop on over to a home depot of sumthin and look at some Krylon spray paint. It usually works really nicely and if you do the coats properly, you will get an almost perfect and powder coat like finish. Just make sure if you go this path, you give about 24hrs between coats. It will look as if it is dry in about 20 mins, but it is not and if you paint over it it will give a very inconsistent finish. Good luck!!!
