Factory Nerf Bars - refinish?

Hi guys, does anyone have any suggestions on what method to refinish the factory metal nerf bars in?  (pic attached)  I've heard anodizing is the best approach because it won't scratch off, but I don't know.  I think Yamaha anodized(?) blue a-arms on a factory blue bike in the early 2000s?  I like the look of them and the method must be pretty good if used on a arms.

 

Thanks.

I have that same set. I bought industry truck paint from the tacker store, mixed with hardener, and a gloss agent ans sprayed 2 coats from my gun. they came out really good. My frame is powder coated candy green and i think what i sprayed is pretty close to the hardness. But you can prob get those powdered for like 60 bucks.

Thanks. The shop that did the coating did a great job. Not sure if I'm will be running these yet. Picked up a set of AC nerf bars with heel gaurds and DG bumper yesterday off a local add (trail, MX bike). Not sure if I should powder coat same as frame or satin black? but am using red webbing either way.
