Might I suggest a more cost effective DIY solution?? Clean the item up yourself with wire brush on grinder/ drill/ sandpaper and application of phosphoric or citric acid based rust remover. This will the clean the item up nicely.

Then etch prime and paint with satin black paint, both from aerosols. (matches the original satin finish quite well).
Cheers John - all comments IMHO
