Default Powdercoater

Anyone know of a good powdercoater I can have some parts sent to? I asked the local dealership here if they knew of anyone in the area and they said there are three powdercoaters in the area, but all of them are hard to get on the phone. I was wanting to take some parts off my new Custom and have them powdercoated black. I imagine this would be cheaper than buying the parts in black, such as tripple trees and lowers. I would like to send my stuff to a place that someone else has used and is happy with their work and pricing. I appreciate your help.

Thanks for the links guys. Anyone know about how much I should expect to pay to powdercoat the fork lowers, top and bottom tripple trees, headlight, handlebars, and belt guard? I'll probably wind up buying some spoked wheels that are already powdercoated.

it depends a lot on the part, but my understanding was 30-50 per part

Anyone have their tins powder coated? (I.E. tank and fenders) If so how much did you pay?

I think I saw a fatboy done in smokey gold (at least they said it was powder coated). It was a little bumpy but felt slick.
