Anyone know this? Just tried ringing Listers but Adrian's busy...

Also, can I get the OZ stickers loose from IM or is it OZ only?

This info is like hens teeth. I have a UK300 and I tried to get info from Pro Drive and from IMG, IMG said Pro Drive had the info needed.... The OZ Racing decals are supposedly silk screened on and are not stickers... and so it goes on. Someone a while ago posted paint codes on this site and I still have them somewhere if you want them. However, I have five wheels I want painted and cant get em done. This from Pro Drive:-
Even if you had the paint code (which isn't recognised on a normal bodyshop paint scheme) you can't recreate the finish because you can't use the same paint process. Wicked Wheels will be able to match the colour and finish by using a different method.
I tried Wicked Wheels and ended up playing phone tag with them for three weeks. I am going to make another effort to try and get them sorted out. If you find and easy economical way please let me know? Will be happy to do the same.
Cheers

This maybe of help !!
The Subaru gold colour for the 99/00 MY produced by
Akzo Nobel is SUB 9097.
It can also be mixed by Harberts using the following

25-676 Silver Fine (Mix No) 594 Mix Ratio 88%
25-632 Gold Yellow Toner (Mix No) 581 Mix Ratio 12%

Best !

If I remember correctly, this colour is slightly lighter than the OZ gold. I prefer it, and refurbed my wheels in the lighter colour.

Thanks for the info on this. Paint codes are defintiley useful. Still a problem getting the OZ decals done, is this done as a stick on decal? I have nine wheels as I bought as set from Barry in NI, these are Jap spec, same wheel as my UK300 but slightly lighter and I would happily have all nine wheels repainted one colour if I could the OZ decals sorted. :-( Any ideas anyone please?

Dealers can get/stock the decals....

Woulda replied sooner but been in for another op (shoulder reconstruction - Ouch!).
Which dealer? Everyone I have asked said no they cant. Mike Wood at Prodrive said they cant get them, IMG said they cant. Those who said they could didnt deliver (I understand Barry, its OK). I am sure that OZ are doing everything in their power to Stop people getting original paint and decals in order to sell more wheels. This is just a way of getting a hell of a bad name. Zero after sales support. The normal paint codes dont apply if the wheels are powder coated. I am going to look at getting a silk screen produced for decals. In fact going to do it today.

Painted the 18" prodrive wheel last year, what a nightmare, we ended up mixing the colour on a trial and error method, painting colour cards and making a match. its the only way!
