well i know i was lookin into getting my own shit to do small stuff…you can get a powder coating gun from ebay for about 100$ and you would need an electric oven(at least im pretty sure) not sure if that would be good for rims though, youd have to tlak to someone like lafengas, im pretty sure he used to powdercoat shit, if any of that helps at all ---

im taking my wheels to this place in hamburg (on southwestern) called hot shots tomarrow. i believe they charge 30 dollars a wheel for sandblasting / powdercoating. pretty good deal, and they do a really good job. ---
