Now let’s keep the good times rolling with more Wekfest San Jose ’14 coverage….

Finally, Finally!!! I’ve long been saying that this Civic coupe needed some sort of aero package to make it more appealing and Erik Mercado finally came through and installed a J’s Racing front lip, front fenders, and rear GT wing. It practically changes the look of the entire car and I think it looks way better than its previous versions….

IMG_1532-Edit

Not much has changed with the engine bay and there really doesn’t need to be. It looks good just the way it is….

ASM-equipped Honda S2000 from Limitless Society….

Bagged Subaru WRX with Ganador Super Mirrors and Work Meister S1Rs….

Good to see steady improvements on Leon Casino’s Acura NSX build. He recently had his WED’s TC105 wheels redone in a matte bronze and I think it looks much better compared to its original silver finish….

Keith “K3ychain” Cheng’s Lexus IS300 on aggressive 5Zigen FN01R wheels….

Full Fabulous package on this LS430 including full aero kit and wheels….

Pretty wild to see a 2JZ-GTE swapped Lexus 2GS here in the states. This one looks like it is possibly set-up for drifitng and what not with its sportier appearance compared to other, more traditionally VIP-styled, 2GS….

Seeing a custom Toyota pick-up is pretty unlikely but as mentioned, Wekfest really delivers on the variety. What I like most about this build are the white Advan Racing RCII wheels….

IMG_1520-Edit

Nothing better than seeing a fresh set of authentic old school Advan wheels on a mini-truck of all things…

IMG_1522-Edit

IMG_1525-Edit

Highly-customized H22A-swapped Honda Accord Wagon on RH EVO C5 wheels. Kinda hard to see here but this Wagon also has a full sliding rag-top. The build isn’t exactly everyone’s style but there is always mutual appreciation for all hard work…

Mallen Fajardo’s bad-ass Camaro Z28 build made its official debut at Wekfest San Jose. Pretty crazy to think that his previous car was a Datsun 510. Not sure if you guys remember it or not but I actually shot the car for Super Street magazine a couple years ago. CLICK HERE to jog your memory…

This one actually belongs to Junior of Wekfest….

IMG_1584-Edit

IMG_1582-Edit

I thoroughly enjoyed this Zenki S14 build when I first saw it at the BLOX Evolution meet. Love the custom engine bay and the overall exterior. Everything just flows very well together, even though his bay is a different color….

IMG_1586-Edit

Nice and simple RX-7 just lowered on polished Work VS-KF…

Bagged Subaru WRX Wagon on deep dish BBS mesh redone with a copper faces….

IMG_1590-Edit

I gotta get outta here so I’m gonna close it out for the day with this shot of Kelvin Bulda’s EK9 CTR-inspired Honda Civic build. He’s had his car for well over a decade now and surprisingly, it is still very relevant with the right usage of parts. He is also currently in the latest issue of Super Street magazine where you can read all about his story…

That’s all for today. Have a great weekend folks!…

  1. The EG coupe with the J’s lip and fenders, I always thought the fenders stuck out more then the bumper due to them being wider?

  2. I didn’t realize Honda made an EG coupe.

    Those 59 Impala’s though!

  3. All In Fab EG Civic Coupe looks confused. Can’t decide if it’s a drag car (engine setup) or a track car (rear spoiler).
