Am I supposed to be scared? Cant handle a little sarcasm?
If you were right in font of me, then yes you should be scared, I would have laid your @$$ out!
Sarcasm is one thing and disrespect is another, I don't take disrespect very kindly, I was just trying to warn those that still do not know.

If you have nothing better to do than to type up your ignorant remarks then please go to some other site that it's members are as inconsiderate and arrogant as your self.

You have an opinion that's fine everyone does, however there are plenty of way to state them without being disrespectfull.

You would think this kind of stuff is common knowledge but........

I saw a set of volks that had come out of a car wash with the clear coat all messed The owner did not tell the guys drying down the car. It was a sad story and ended up costing a grip to fix. This may have been posted 100x but I dont mind a reminder now again.

If you can be man enough to apologize here than I should do the same to.
I apologize for takeing it a bit personal, although I still think it was a bit to sarcastic and slightly disrespectfull , I did over react a bit.
Can we squash it here

With the amount of views on this thread, I'm sure it saved hundreds of volk wheels by now.

Good looking out Manny.

Thanks!
Where have you been, haven't seen you around the O.Z.O.C meets.
I do see you once in a while on the Turnpike or on the west side of town.
Did you powder coat the volks, I know of a good place that did mine and Matts.

Be careful if its to high pressure your stickers might peel off. Ive def seen that happen, would suck to rip a sticker off your Volks....

You have 2 choices. You can contact somebody like Steve @ Evolution who sells Volks and order some genuine Volk stickers. Ive heard there are some crazy wait times on those things though. Or you can go to ebay and buy some replica stickers for say TE37's. A freind of mine did that with his TE's, and the stickers look great. Only a hardcore wheel guy with a good eye could tell they are "replicas", the letters overlap a tiny bit. I have genuine stickers on my Volks and I couldnt even tell his were fake.
