Wekfest LA 2016 Coverage…Part 3…


Hey hey hey…. Back with more 2016 Wekfest LA coverage!! There are some pretty cool builds in this particular portion of the coverage, unlike the previous two parts. Kidding of course, but for real, there are some good builds here for you to check out. Don’t forget to stop by the NEMO’S-GARAGE Grand Opening Meet this weekend if you are in the area. It’s gonna be kinda hot but I swear, it’ll be a decent time. There isn’t much going on this month so it is the perfect time to have a meet. Come on out, say what’s up, check out some cars, sweat your fucking ass off, and go home with no regrets. In the mean time, peep these shots from both Tiffanie and I from the WFLA event…

Share if you like, discard if you don’t, haha… Enjoy…

Wekfest LA 2016 marked the debut of the first West Coast M&M Hyper Wide Body DC5 RSX owned by Patricia Baluyot from WHEELERS. Love the massive TE37Vs and how they rest under the M&M flares snuggly….

IMG_1760-Edit

The chassis-mount Voltex rear wing is a nice touch and the car actually flows quite well with the Mugen front bumper. Can never go wrong with Ganador Super Mirrors either. Cool build…

Civic hatchback repainted inside and out in a teal finish wearing a J’s Racing front lip, Chargespeed front fenders, and rear fender flares. I don’t have any photos of the cage but it honestly look kind of unsafe where the cage meets the chassis. Might be something to look into because it could be really bad if this car ever got into an accident…
