I had not only the running boards gloss black powdercoated but the entire radiator support and inner fenders too. I don't have it back together yet but it really looks sharp. I paid a totoal of $275 which included the sandblasting. Did the same thing on my 57' BelAir but used a satin black finish more like the original.
Powdercoating is the way to go IMO.
