Default Where to get anodized grab handles for cockpit?

Want red anodized grab handles for my cockpit (current handles are stainless). Anyone know if I can get these from somewhere other than Fountain? I looked online and no one appears to stock the same length handles. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, could I just have my existing handles anodized? Not sure if this is possible with stainless.

Thanks in advance for the help.
Brad

Just take yours off & have them powdercoated in a
candy apple color. I did mine in a candy apple blue
and they came out beautiful. It was only 400 dollers
to do all my interior rails & seat bases.

Call Martin Sanborn at Fountain, he has full uopgrade packages for all this type of stuff. Fountain are really stepping up to the plate on these things.

Thanks epeek and wcmarine for the advice!!

Epeek - I assume the candy gives it more of an "anodized" look vs. a normal powdercoat color?

I'll give Fountain a call to see their price before I go the powdercoating route. Would prefer not to be without the handles during the summer if the price difference isn't too great.

Thanks again.

Yes,The candy colors have a silver metalic base coat
and the color coat is transparent. Makes for a great
look.
Heres a pic of the gut on my 91' 32 fever. I had
just done it over at the time. Shes gone now,just
bought a new 35 EX last week.

A local Radiator shop started a powder coating
dept about 5 years ago. They do great job. I can
get you their adress & phone # if you want.
