Those look damn close to Takata to me.


They are Volk Special Order green.

Those are Takata green Volk TE37's That is Jonathan Birth's car. Check the Feb. 06' issue of Superstreet he has a feature in it. It even says they are Takata green.

I thought they weren't because the thread that I got that pic from said they weren't... plus it does look like a different shade, but I guess that's just the pic?

*edit -

I know it's called grabber green, but a) it's a very odd color, I don't really like it... b) I like the green on the EK and c) grabber green wasn't available in the local paintshop...

Agreed, the Takata green is kinda cool in a way (like on black) but I think just plain bright green would be better (like on white), like how the EK wheels look *in that pic* (I know they are actually Takata green, but in that pic they look different)

BTW, supposedly, here is the Grabber Green, a stock Ford color

Did a little more research... seems there's a new Grabber green and an old grabber green ????? The old one is butt ugly (as on Ford above)... the new one is called: Grabber green engine enamel... and that looks just like the EKs wheels

It's some sort of engine paint, not a normal paint... that's why I couldn't find it &gt;_&lt; Damn... wish I knew this earlier

That EK's green is just the regular Volk Takata green, I saw more pics of it yesterday (I can't find them again ) and in the other pics it looked more sea greenish/takata

But I want to see the engine enamel on a set of wheels, anyone got pics?
