Look for a metal finishing/plating shop. You should be able to find several in your area. Some shops will do both powdercoating and anodizing.

We powdercoat/anodize pretty much everything aluminum on our robots. It's a great look, and can be extremely cheap or even free, if you can find the right shops to help you. The only 'problem' is it can sometimes take up to 3 or 4 days to get all your parts back.
