It's been SAID that 18's don't have the etchings, and the 19's+ have them.
No, these are NOT fake, and has been repowdercoated to Takata Green, my buddy bought the black stickers, cuz honestly, they look better than the blue. It's better than mimicing the REAL takata greens, correct?
And better than having ROTA GRIDS stamped with the BLUE VOLK stickers.
but hey, to each his own... I'll leave it at that. I just find it really sad that someone with 4 or 10 sets of volks can't even tell the difference between real and fake.. Nor do they even try to do research before making an assumption that these are fake, when in fact they are real..
Don't worry, he just picked up soemthing to make them stick out a lil more.

Instead of only reading MY comment, why don't you read the one ABOVE MINE.

if they were your friend's wheels, and you knew they were real, why didn't you just say so in the beginning? i would of believed you
and big whoop if i cant tell that some recolored volks are real or not from a picture, sure they can be real volks, they're still not real takata green volks
i already stated my mistake for the 19's, so you don't gotta be a douche about it. so sorry for going offtopic, still doesnt change the fact that they look ugly as **** on the car.

)and well, apparently most people agree that those "PAINTED" TE-37 are just way too much for that car
that's the public opinion, if you don't like it, then don't come in here and read all these, because when people post something, they know that there will always be some good and bad comments..
well, people make mistake and Johnnyboy admitted that he made a mistake
and it is SO SAD that those ugly "REAL" TE-37 is being seen as FAKE one
I just wonder why.....
edit: my bad,,just saw this guy post count..he is freakin noob in CL world LMAO

johnnyboy, it's not that i'm trying to disrespect you. It's just that you started started calling them FAKES that really struck me. I seen your ride and thought you had at least some knowledge of this stuff,but obviously not.
Seoul - If you don't know about these REAL/FAKE TE's, then don't say **** about it. And where did I say that these wheels were too much for the car or not? I was tryign to prove a point these there are real, and for those of you that DON'T know abotu these wheels, don't say **** when u dont know ****. Quit being a smartass.
New to CL? lol. You're lucky I dont have my account anymore. I been here since 03-04, buddy.
So let's set this straight.
THESE WHEELS WERE ON MY CAR before it was sold to him. These are REAL TE's repowdercoated Takata Green @ WheelTechnique.
Are we clear? Any questions about these wheels, feel free to ask. It seems as if I got off to a bad start on here, but anyways, i'm not here to start drama. Those that know me should know i'm not a drama queen at all, like some of these socalled "OG's"
One more thing.. I seen johnnyboy's car in person @ Wekfest and is def. my fav. IS out there. Keep it up man. Loved the Matteblackw/bronze TE's ... Jus keepin it real
