I have spoken with someone from Chips-Away today about a small repair to a kerbed 18" Rally Gold Prodrive OZ wheel (Subaru p/n: SACC2550). He said that they could repair it to 'like new', but I would lose the 'O.Z racing' logo on the rim.

Does anybody know if replacement logos are available? If so from where?

Also what is the paint colour code.

Thanks.

I think OZ Prodrives come in 2 different gold colours, be careful.

Dr Steve

Yes, that is why I asked. My wheels did not match the sample he had, and thought it may be one of the other wheels.

i know that the dealer in worcester has loads of the OZ racing stickers for the wheels.

I've bought a similar logo from Listers for about £2.00. I also sprayed the wheel and the sticker with clear laquer after fitting. It's been on for 18 months with no problems.

I need to contact Chips Away to about my wheel.

Out of interest, how much are they charging?

Dr Steve

They quoted about £65. This is the first person I have spoken to about it, so not sure if that is more expensive than the norm.

M0NEY

Well ive heard they are really good.

Usual price is around £50 but ive seen some for more so i guess £65 is good.

Let me know how the quality comes out

I've seen a wheel painted/repaired by a 'mobile van' type out fit. The paint came of the wheel when cleaning with meths to fit the stickers !!! The paint used by a body shop didn't. I know who I'd trust to paint a wheel. Most body shops can match wheel colours exactly and I paid £25 to have a slight mark sprayed.

I'm trying to find how easy it is to get logos put back on the rims of mine as well. Ian k uk300 - i have a 300 too - number 301. do you know the colour code for the wheels - also how you finding the car??

IanK Spec C

Hi PippyRips any good bodyshop can match the colour. I don't know the code, sorry.

My car's great thanks. It's my second Scoob (1st was a MY97). Hope you're enjoying yours. It must be the last one from the number you've got !!

Best regards,

Ian

yeah - got very parnoid at first when i found it cause of the 01 number. They found out Subaru didn't make a no.13 so it all fitted in to place!!

Love the car - it's my first Scoob though i wouldn't mind giving her a bit more power. you done anything to yours or hasve any recommendations??

Hi,
I have a UK 300 (no 75) and IMHO the Prodrive pack is a must, otherwise you have a bog standard MY01 WRX with big wheels and better lights. I've just had the Phase 3 suspension pack fitted from TSL Motorsports and it handles better than ever. I thought it was good before but now it is the dogs gonads - also had the tyres replaced with Toyo Proxies - the Pirellis were slightly illegal after 23K miles. Together they transform the handling and it looks much better for being 2" lower. I definitely recommend all three.

i've got the PPP pack - and have been thinking about lowering her slightly. If you don't mind me asking how much was the suspension pack? also have you got any pics?

I imagine another way to get some more performance from the car would be to lose some of the cats. - have/does anyone know anything about this?
