Alright guys,
Had a quote off these for my rocker cover powder coating. They're based in sandwich, Kent.
They said if it needs sandblasting 1st £20 Then £20 for powdercoat.
They also said they've got a decent range of colours.
I e mailed them & had a reply almost instantly, so seem pretty good to deal with. Im getting it done end of March, will put up some pics.

Oh the prices are plus VAT but still thought it worked out not too bad

Prob depends how clean it is.
