for durability powdercoat is better hands down. Paint chips powder is very dificult to chip if applied corectly. when powder is applied it is electrostaticly attached to the metal even before being baked on.

Powdercoat for sure is more durable. Just make sure any holes or anything threaded is covered/plugged as it's a huge pain to remove once baked on.

Powder coating is most definetely tougher than painting but if you ever decide you wanna change the color scheme, you're gonna have a LOT tougher time of it. It'll take chemical strip or something like it to remove the powder coat. You can also burn it off but... We have a huge powder coat system at work, so I'm very used to dealing with it. It all comes down to personal preference.
