I checked out a place down the road from my house that is now doing powdercoating. Their rates are pretty competative.
Anybody looking for coating that doesn't want to pay fireballs high prices give these guys a shot.
Their website is not that great but the work they do is alright, according to a few ppl I know that had work done there.

edit: they do ceramic coating also....and they apparently sandblast EVERYTHING so there's no point to cleanup your stuff before they do it.
If people want to get a bunch of stuff done we could submit one big order sort of like a GB. I am going to get my strut bar powdercoated, and my coolant tank so it does not corrode since it is aluminum and I drive the car in the winter....
