Post Anyone know of a good place for anodizing?

I'm having trouble finding a place that can anodize the trim that goes around my windows. Anybody have a place they would recommend?

Where are you? Most large cities have anodizing companies. You can also do a search on the internet. Lots of sources there.

Another alternative is powder coating. It lasts longer. The anodizing (black) seems to change to a dark purple after awhile (my observations anyway).

Hope this helps,

And my observation - the finished product will only look as good as the polishing job. Make sure the anodiser takes very very good care of the parts.

I am in Rochester, MN which isn't all that big. There is a place I could have them powder coated. The guy I have painting the car also offered to paint the trim pieces, which would probably be a pretty good option as well.
