Fishstix: Great pics man. Car looks beautiful!

Question, how did you remove the front emblem? Looks like you shaved it completely off?

Thank you sir! the car is pretty much complete on the exterior. NExt is interior stay tuned!

I'm sorry, i disagree. TE will never be played out... THEY ARE A CLASSIC WHEEL my friend. ROTA grids are played out.

LOL if u're referring to my wing. I LOVE IT. i track my car on a pretty regular basis, It's super functional and i love the aggressive look.

I like your whole setup but you can't say TE37's are timeless because of design and Rota Grids are played out. That's just childish to say. Not everyone can afford to spend $3k+ on the "REAL" ones. They're "KNOCKOFFS" so they're the same design except the Rotas came out with a more aggressive offset. I guess everyone who can't afford them should "Know Their Place" and stick with their stockers.

FWIW, I decided to stay away from the TE37's and Grids. I found a middle of the road wheel that was still respectable yet looked much like those wheels. I bought the RAYS Gramlight 57D wheels. They may not be as light at the Volks but they're still a nice wheel.

I think you are referring to the spoke design, YEs they are more concaved... whatevers. I'm not having a battle between Rota and Volks... Nobody should say people should know there place.

People just said TE are played out and i disagreed and my reason why. Get all the rotas you want. Thats what set me different from you.
