mmmm i got my rims repaired at alliance....did a sh*t job in colour matching..but repair was good but still not happy in colour matching....i think [Michael] could justify that :/ hahah

ahaha, have to agree with you their, the colour match look very shit on your rims, looked more like poo then a golden colour :(

hey guys

thanks for all the replies.

i think u guys are getting me wrong....

sorry i didnt state this on the first post.

Rims are brand new (msg grey). have not been fitted or used.

just want to paint it matt black. ppl reccomend to powder coat instead of spray painting it if i wan the colour to last (wont chip easily). call up a few place n most dont powder coat anymore or for commercial purposes only....

do u guy know a place to powder coat which does a good job...

cheers.

Sorry forgot to tell you didnt add something in....

LANDSDALE TOO FAR FOR ME!!!!! sorry should say it ealier.

i don't mind going there if the price is good.

dont mind asking---> how much did u get it powder coated?

cos i got quoted prices from $120 - $300 for the set.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
