HAd grip tape done to mine, as well as a Dawson FO front sight and target rear. Scott Springer did a trigger job to 3#s and polished the action.

Love the way it works and feels now, much better than the stock feel

Jess doesn't have all of that on his site yet.
I'm not sure exactly waht the entire grip job would run. It would depend on exactly what all you had him do.
I'd just call him and see.
I think it's more reasonable than most would expect though...

I plan to stipple my BiTone sometime soon. I wanna work on the strokes for a while first but maybe today I'll get to work.

Grip tape on only one side & front & back makes good sense!

I did hand stippling on 2 of my XD45 Compacts. One is stippled all over, the other I did in a diamond pattern (pics), just to reminmd me of a 1911

I also did under the trigger guard and below the slide for my index finger.

I bought that same mag release button and LOVE it. Then I realized it's illegal in IDPA
