Place to powdercoat rims?

I might pick up some wheels and want to powdercoat the lip. Anyone know of any places besides wheel techniques in santa clara that doesn't charge an arm and a leg? Maybe i can get a paint shop to do it too. Any recommendations would be great.

Those of you who had them powdercoated, how much did it cost? I plan on doing just the lips. going to compare powdercoat prices vs. paint
