As far as the plastic goes, they make low temp curing powder. It will cure ~ 180 degrees (F), which is low enough for most plastics.

There are colors available for coloring your iphone body. Those colors are made to color plastic materials and really lasts for long. It is better not to use car paints or other paints on the skin.

You can also get one of the ClearCoat or WrapSol skins and paint on top of that rather than directly on the phone. If I were you, I would get an IaPeel skin, and use my inkjet printer do rest. If you want to waterproof it, just use of the spray-on coating, used by print shops, to seal it.

i wanna paint mine haha

Even if you have lo temp cure powder coat I thought it had to be metal cause the process uses an electrical charge to attract the powder coat? Or not

what about going to a vinyl shop and getting a bit of vinyl cut and used as a wrap ;-) colour of your choice like a invishield

Nobody checked out the products from Iapeel? Those guys are really cool. I saw them at CES where they demonstrated their stuff, with a lot of folks surrounding them. There was one dude, a blogger I think, that had this massive tattoo on his entire right arm. The guys at iapeel took a digital camera and took a snapshot of his tattoo and then instantly created an iPhone skin for the guy. Wow, he went nuts. If you are interested in painting your iPhone (I can't really understand why you would), you should definitely give iapeel a look. I haven't used one, but it looked cool enough at the CES booth. Come back and give a review of it if you do give it a try.
