aar0,
You should be able to find someone local to do that for you. Try the yellow pages or check with an exhibit fabrication or sign company. I work in the exhibit industry and we do a lot of powdercoating. You want to take it to them totally dissasembled. No seals, bolts, tags, etc. They will sandblast it first then coat it. If you go in person, you can flip through color charts. Ask which colors he has on hand left from other jobs. This may save you some money since they have to buy the powder in multi pound packages. Keep the thought of touch up in mind as well. There are some way cool options out there but they are a pain to match touch up to.
Worst case I can hook you up with the guy I use, Chris @ Lithia Powdercoating 770-948-6891. Shipping to the Atlanta area may cost almost as much as the job though.
Good luck,
Tim
