Bodywork in Sydney

Hey guys,
While I am waiting for my TRD200GT kit to arrive I was wondering where I could
take everything to be fitted and painted - without being ripped off.  I know that the
TRD2000GT kit can be a bit of a nightmare to fit properly so I am expecting a bit for labour.
 
Also, on that note......any ideas for rims?  I'm thinking 19 x 8 at the front and about 19 x 9.5 - 10 at the back.
Don't know what style though.  I know that 18's will look the business in the arches but I want to squeeze 19's if I can.
 
I know........i'm an idiot haha.

    Unless you want to add 50 unwanted kg's, reduce your braking capacity and reduce your handling, I would steer away from 19's. Even with the 18's your adding close to 40kgs over stock rims.
    As for the body kit, find some video on how to do it then have a go yourself as you will need close to 10k from what I understand. How much for the kit?

    the kit is a replica and is about $1300 all up includingpostage to Sydney.
    Getting the genuine kit from Japan (if they made them anymore) i've heard would cost close to $12K
