Am boring with the color, but still love the style. So I'm just wondering where can I have my wheels be re-paint and what price mark should I looking for? Better be in northen suburbs but willing to travel a little bit.

By the way, the wheels are 18', and how long should the re-paint takes? Thanks.

Good question:

I am looking for options with this as well. I reckon the premium option is Mick @ Micolour, who will do the best job you're likely to get.

Vu @ DT said to me over the phone that he doesn't paint wheels.

Any cheaper options anybody?

Craig @ Colour Ur Mags or Rims, can never remember which.

Avoid the big players in Moorabbin, rip off central.

Craig is a bit eccentric, and it looks like you dropping your rims off in some back yard workshop, but the quality is great and at a very reasonable price point. Had my 34 R rims power coated, but he can paint as well.

Powder Coating:

Reefies Paintworks

Make that two... I felt ripped off by the Moorabbin big wheel repair shop... $160 or $180 and 1 month later the wheel just peel off...

I mean WTF...\\\

and here I am now still looking for a reliable wheel repair shop in the west or inner city ....

as the wheel is on the car it's hard for me to find time to have the wheel off the car for a week or two...

yeah these guys are good, had my old rims pwder coated there

Powdercoating is the way to go...it lasts a long time if done properly. I had a set of scratched up, painted black S15 wheels that I got powdercoated in silver and they looked factory brand new. Awesome work. Some joint in Bayswater...there's a couple there who do powdercoating.

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
