OMG I'm so happy right now! Magman originally told me that my wheels would take 2-4 weeks (because he is so busy leading up to xmas), but he ended up doing them in 4 working days so I picked them up today! They look as good as new, even better than I imagined. 
 
The lips/dishes were already in great condition so he just polished them.
He repainted the inner spoke sections, including on the back face.
 

 

 
He even wrapped the wheels up to protect them:
 

 
I highly recommend Magman at Punchbowl. It's just one guy named Greg, he's a top bloke.
 
Now I just have to wait for my hubcentric rings and centre caps to arrive from the US.

I ended up ordering a set of 10 of the Dorman 610-445 studs, but the very next day I realised that I shouldn't have. 
It turns out that I'm able to use longer studs than I originally thought, so I'll be using some spares (H&R or ARP) that Julian has.

I'll probably retain my A/C. Have a look at MR2QIK's latest build thread, he has a photo in there somewhere which shows his heat exchanger positioning at the front, with A/C retained.

I'm not sure how soon I'll get a new plenum, but you will see it mentioned in this thread when I'm close to that stage.

Nice. Bet you're looking forward to going home.

damn you.............................
looks so much better man
one more thing to do i reckon, get rid of that amber coloured toblerone and get the solid side moulding in place.
did you find out if the wheels were taken apart to freshen them up?
cheers

I forgot to ask for more information, but I assume that the wheels were disassembled, because the back of the spokes were painted too, and even the bolts (that attach the spoked section to the barrel) look cleaner than before.

Hmmm, only a few people have mentioned it, and I've never really given it much thought. I don't know if I would replace them with plain side mouldings, I may replace them with clear toblerones instead. TBH I'm so used to the orange ones I don't mind them.

MR2QIK
Great work! Good to see my hard work paid off & you're happy. Really looks good & is now unique.

Thanks!

I agree about deleting the toblerones. Very cheap & easy DIY job since you just use AUDM solid side mountings (your car is black too). You can take a look at mine tonight if you wish. You are bringing it to tonight meet right?

I know what you mean. IF I decide to do it, I might wait until I take my front bar off when the new heat exchanger gets fitted. Hmmm, on the other hand I was intending for my car to be 100% finished on the outside when you do the photoshoot lol.
I might drive it to the meet, I'm not sure yet.
