I powdercoat stuff myself. I paid $20 for an old oven. $10 for cleaning supplies wiped it down and put it on self clean for the inside. I paid $140? (thereabouts) for a Caswell powder coating gun and went to town. There is a small learing curve but boy is it nice to do your own parts. I coated everthing that i could unbolt from my 1991 Chevy truck underhood including the aircleaner. I blasted everthing and coated it. It all came out great. Perhaps not show quality but real nice. The more you do the better you get.
The manifold would of been $75/100 alone. I did every pulley everbracket the engine cooling fan. All with $20 worth of powder. I recently started coating my Jag suspension pieces from one of my other cars. I did the front control arms and they look great.
