I got it powder coated "sherlock forest green" for $80.00 (including kickstand) at Olympic Powder Coat down in Santa Ana. They were really nice and did an amazing job. Although, I would do anything to get the head tube painted a cream color, but that alone would cost more than it did to paint the whole bike.
About the handlebar angle, I've been meaning to rotate it, I noticed I was getting sores on the inner side of my index knuckle above the web of my thumb, it was because my hands were slipping down and putting too much pressure on the lever hoods. If I'm right, the angle of the ramp should be pretty much completely horizontal on the Noodle, yeah?
