It shouldnt cost more than $100 to powdercoat it, I really think it would be worth it because the bedliner or w/e will be half that and probably wont stick over a few years

Matt-
I had a guy offer to paint it to match my truck but I'm afraid the regular car paint might not hold up as well as powder coating it? What do you think?

naa I wouldnt paint it to match...first time you threw anything in there with a metal finish it would scratch it...On a truck box, PC is the only way to go. Its cheap anyway, itd cost less than getting it painted.
