Powder Coat in Houston?

I have tried fairly hard on trying to find a place in Houston that would powder coat rims... But have found absolutely nothing

Anybody know of any place in Houston that would powder coat wheels?

Allied Powder Coating is the only place I've found so far... But they said they'd charge 75 bucks each... And that doesn't include me choosing which color (which will be a 20-30% increase in price)

I paid $400 for a full set in gun metal grey. If I had chosen a more common color that they do all the time I could have had it done for $300.

Ya, the price doesn't really bother me so much now, but just recently I took my 8 in for it's check up and such... One of the mechanics says that my right rear rim is "bent".... That's 200 bucks right there... I really want to do this inbetween me changing tires... But I think I'm gonna have to save up for other things for a while...
