Stagea Wiper Arms

[Illings]

My wiper arms in my s2 stagea have started to rust and I'm look for a replacement is there some where I could buy them. Also is there another nissan vehicle with the same wipers as ours.

Cheers

Please do! What turnaround time and ballpark cost are you looking at for getting it done? Or do you just chuck them in with all the other parts you are getting coated?

I like the idea of coating them but not having wipers at all for a while feels a bit sketchy.

Sorry, didn’t consider that, I’m used to GTR life, where wait times aren’t considered. 
to get them coated wouldn’t be more then $50, but you would need someone close to you for efficiency. 
My guy could do them in a couple of days if it was urgent but if your posting would be a nightmare on wait time. 
and you’d be fkd if you got caught in the rain. 
I know with the GTR new arms are close to $300, not sure with your car. But coating wouldn’t or should I say shouldn’t be more the $50

Soda blast and paint with rattle can in a single day.

I tried painting mine, let’s just say I’m no painter! Lol 

I didn’t soda blast though, just hit it with some 400 wet/dry paper

Hah, no worries! I'm not OP, so their situation might be different. I appreciate the suggestion. Will keep the coating option in mind when some overdue other rust work is scheduled one day and the car is out anyway. My main fear is starting on something like that, getting it all fresh and nice and then noticing how all the other bits around it look a bit worse for wear in comparison. It would never end!

Sounds like every project that I have ever worked on

They look nice. Do they take them completely apart when they paint them?

I’m not sure, but everything was done, even the spring and plastic cover
