Welcome to the forum, Carroll!
I have gone to this place off of 70 & St. Charles Rock Road to get an estimate done on getting my road rash'd OEM rims fixed before (I think they quoted me ~$125 per; seemed a bit pricey to me). I do recall also asking about powdercoating, and I think they do offer it as a service... I didn't get a price estimate on that, however.
On second thought, that $125 per estimate might have been for both repair and powdercoating; I am unsure. Below is their contact info, let me know what you find out if you look into it:
The Hubcap & Wheel Store
11561 Saint Charles Rock Rd @ I-70, Saint Charles, MO 63303
p: (314) 291 5101

Correct; I have not used them, nor have I really shopped around (even for asking just one place, $125 really seemed way too high for me, so I just backed off). I do know baseballgenius80 has gotten his rotor hubs powdercoated (or just painted?) somewhere in IL... he might know some other places that do powdercoating around here.
EDIT: Google search yields a two year old thread on stlsr.com of a place that does powdercoating:
http://www.stlsr.com/forums/showthread.php?t=93579
site is apparently WWW.HP-POWDERCOATINGS.COM
From the site:
" Wheels 18''-19" ADD $15.00 per wheel "
Another potential site:
http://www.customfabandcoatings.com/
Google for: "st. louis powder coating"... a few relevant hits there; the two above stick out most to me as potentials for car application. I unfortunately cannot vouch for anything in regards to powdercoating, though.

I have a Titanium Gray RX-8 with black and red interior, im going to do a black/red/gray theme on the whole car, so im debating getting them coated all black, all red, or black with a red lip...

Welcome Carroll. In regards to what Ferret said about me. I got my wheel hubs painted black and brake calipers painted yellow for $200 all said and done, I think it was. Paint is still looking good after a couple years. It was done out of Tuxedo Racing in Sauget, IL....but I think they have since closed down to the public.
