Well, I had heard some rumors about this process at a car show last summer and didn't think anyone could do it because most fiberglass products are trying to melt at powdercoating temperatures. I guess there are some newer high temp resins that can take the heat and this company has developed a system to make it stick...

This is kind of an important step for fiberglass parts as powdercoat is tough yet flexible which would make it ideal for body kits, ground effects, or just about anywhere stuff is going to get slammed.
