Title: Empi 5's Post by: Turtle001 on September 27, 2006, 22:05:50 pm i made up my mind -- i'm gonna keep my empis -- no i'm hesitating for the color
1. GUN GREY 2. GOLD 3. ALU COLOR i kind of like the gold one -- but is this an original empi color? Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Turtle001 on September 27, 2006, 22:14:40 pm ...

Gold is my choice but it depends on what colour your car is Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Turtle001 on September 27, 2006, 22:41:11 pm the car is CAPRI BLUE
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Diederick/DVK on September 27, 2006, 22:59:18 pm i think your car looks absolutely stunning already! 8)
and i definitely dig the empi 5s, glad you're keeping them. what wrong with the colour now, they look amaaaaaaazing! but if you insist... though i think that gold will look a little odd on your capri blue...

Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Mags on September 28, 2006, 07:14:23 am go for Grey. ;)
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Dokke/DFL on September 28, 2006, 07:50:35 am In my opinion capri blue doesn't match with gold ... grey would be better
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Zach Gomulka on September 28, 2006, 08:43:40 am Gold really contrasts in a bad way. Go grey/gunmetal
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Lee.C on September 28, 2006, 12:08:48 pm Grey dude - it wil look the awsome 8)
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Trond Dahl on September 28, 2006, 12:18:37 pm I personally like the grey best no matter what, but I have to agree that gold + blue doesn't sound like a good match
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: lowfastbus on September 28, 2006, 20:02:18 pm Gold!!
Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: herrvee on September 28, 2006, 21:19:05 pm grey seems to be the best choice between the two colors.
I prefer them mat aluminium when them come from sand blasting, and letting them some days outside to weather the aluminium Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Jon on September 28, 2006, 22:07:20 pm grey seems to be the best choice between the two colors.

Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Lee.C on October 01, 2006, 02:01:53 am Hey Buddy I remember - How you doin? :)
So how long did the rims take? My Cal Parts took about 15 hours per wheel !!!! :( And in answer to your question - I sure am building a "Looker" its gonna be a little bit special ;) and yep I want to fit buggy bars but I thnk they will have to be "Hand made" if I want them to look right. drop me a line at monki772003@yahoo.co.uk sometime Cath ya soon dude :) Title: Re: Empi 5's Post by: Frank LUX on October 05, 2006, 21:07:01 pm Cast or Gun Grey for your Car.... ;) ;) ;)
