Volk TE 37 FZero paint code?
 
I can't seem to find the color/paint code for the F-zero color. I'm not going to blow money on the genuine, given that I live in nyc, so I'm thinking about powdercoating Varrstoen ES 2.2.2 ripoffs.

HKYStormFront 01-24-2011 09:15 PM

my understanding is that volk never gives out paint codes

zero 01-24-2011 09:24 PM

^ especially custom colors.

Waiz 01-24-2011 09:32 PM

Any good painter could match them.

Just please don't put Volk or Nismo logos on those wheels.

CrownR426 01-24-2011 09:33 PM

I bet if you pay someone from the company you'll get it! :tup:

im cool with people buying replica wheels if thats what they want... but i think its taking it too far to try and play them off as the real thing. its cool to fool the people who dont know, but trying to pull a fast one on your fellow car enthusiasts who would otherwise know the difference is kinda ... i dont like

Waiz 01-24-2011 10:05 PM

That's what OP's wheels are, lookup Varrosteon.

No offense OP, we're just talking.

ohh....i just looked em up no comment.

wdkwang 01-25-2011 10:43 AM

No offense taken. I just want that look. That design in that color.

wdkwang 01-25-2011 10:59 AM

Even though someone fabricated the te37 onto the amuse kit, I thought it was a match made in heaven. Half of it being that my fav color is blue

To quote Paris Hilton ^ thats hot...

kielbasa16 01-25-2011 12:05 PM

Discussion about replicas and all aside, I think the color itself, which is what the OP is after looks beautiful coupled with PW.

bullitt5897 01-25-2011 12:16 PM

There is no available paint code for the F-Zero... Trust me I tried and ended up with painting my wheels a custom candy blue to match them. BASF candy charizzma blue or something along those lines :tup:

wdkwang 01-26-2011 05:28 AM

Mike I been wanting to ask you, how does 1000 hp in a 370 feel? Is it heaven on earth?

fuct 01-26-2011 07:30 AM

No luck there either. Especially if your looking for the himetal bronze!

fuct 01-26-2011 12:38 PM

no just the rough dark bronze.

bullitt5897 01-26-2011 01:25 PM

As stated before you cant get the paint codes from Volk for any finish.

Waiz 01-26-2011 03:01 PM

Since these are cast it makes it even easier to find a painter than if you bought the real forged TE's. I don't suggest Powdercoating forged wheels as a general rule since the PC'ing process exposes the wheel to intense heat and can comprimise rigidity.


Again just talk to a painter in your area and I'm sure you can find something close, there are enough pics of the wheel on the internet to match with.

Chris_1 01-30-2011 12:03 PM

The white 370 just looks crazy with the wheels.

dirTy_shoeZ 08-16-2011 07:44 PM

I juuuust checked my f zero blue ce28 on the way home :(.... I'm excessively pissed right now.... Yup I'll admit I'm being a bit excessive but fuuuuck!!!! It's f zero bluuuue :(

The Volk TE37 is one of the most replicated wheels around.

Rota
Varrstoen
SSK
Konig
And MANY more

The only wheel that gets copied more is BBS's

JollyGoodChap 08-17-2011 01:50 PM

:D, Like waizzz said, please don't put volk stickers on them

jdmlove 01-23-2013 03:05 AM

waking up this thread!!

did the OP or anyone found the F-Zero Blue color code?

thinking of painting my CE28 with this color.

:tup:

dirTy_shoeZ 01-24-2013 06:12 AM

I doubt it, and a color match never matches. But depending on what you got I may consider trading the set I have for another color just cause mine have a few Knicks and I am probably gonna color change them unless someone cares to save them.
