Unless the GFX are metal, you can't powder coat them.

If you can show me how to negatively charge the fiberglass/plastic so that the positively charged poweder particles will be attracted to it, I'll personally nominate you for the nobel prize for physics...
Then if you can show me how to make it survuve the 425 degree baking process, I'll nominate you for a second one

Your hood was baked at arund 120 degrees...thats to harden the paint, not melt particles of colored powder
