Powder coating and Anodizing have different "styles" anodizing is alomst like a clear tint.. kinda.. where as Powder Coating is just that a coating of colored powder..

i'de bet those are anodized jsut by the look of them.. but not forsure on that...

+1 on the ugly comment

anodizing is where you put the metal in acid, run some current through it, and depending on how long you leave it in there, a really thin layer (what we see as the 'color') grows on the surface of the metal.

BTW. steel cant be anodized. aluminum can though.
