    Tom Nguyen’s Lexus GS350 | Car Feature

    The best thing about the internet is you can see what people are building even if they’re hundreds of miles away. I recently saw Tom installed an AIMGAIN kit on his GS and it looked really good. Luckily, he was already coming down for Toyotafest and had time for me too shoot his car. Here are the results, sorry if I’m a little rusty..

    VIP GT style.

    Tucking all four wheels is the best kind of tuck even better than getting tucked in at night by Gigi Hadid.

    Advan GT in magnesium looks so good.

    I thought checking out the art installation behind this art store would be pretty cool.

    The photos were cool, but I still felt like I didn’t get the money shot yet. So, we decided to go to the beach and see if we can get some shots with the sun setting at the beach.

    Tom giving the GS a quick detail before the shoot.

    Damn I got a money shot with the first shot.

    Perfection.

     

     

    Thanks Tom for letting me shoot your car! Hope you enjoyed the photos! Hit me up if you’re trying to shoot or if you want to take me out to eat.

    I just felt like taking some photos of our stickers for the online store and thought I share it here because the colors in these stickers are so awesome.

    Gold leaf with our Cursive HOODRATstuff.

    The dual layer HOODRATstuff script sticker. Only a few left!

    The ever so popular license plate. We re-stocked it with 4 different colors; gold chrome, chrome, white and brushed silver.

    Thank you for all the support!

     Some photos I took of David from 714 Tire’s Audi wagon on RVL center lock wheels. Pretty crazy a company now makes center lock adapters, so you can rock center lock wheels on a 5 lug car. Check out some center lock car porn below..

     Slowly most of us in Royal Origin are converting from slammed cars to lifted trucks and off roading. What an extreme change.. I know, but I guess we’re over scraping and we actually like climbing over big trails and rocks. When it comes to off-roading, camping goes hand in hand, so we decided to go to Pismo Beach to camp and try out Chivas’s new RZR. dsc00417

    Angelo’s 350z still not getting enough love. It’s for sale by the way…

    Fueling up before the long trek. Shavi getting down with the leftover chicken nuggets.

    Make sure you check out our online store!

    We got to Pismo at 1 AM and my Venza got stuck in the stand. Did you know the Venza doesn’t have tow hooks? What the fuck right? Chivas had to pull me out of the stand by my suspension.

    The next morning we got to work on our camp site.

    So awesome that you can camp right on the beach, the sound of the waves is so soothing.

    Loved the campfire vibes. The vibes were so good that Vince fell asleep.

    The next morning we had a photo shoot of Chiva’s 4Runner and damn it looked good next to the waves.

    Man I want one.

    On our way back home, we stopped by Oxnard for Topper’s Pizza. A must try if you’re ever in this area.

    Until next time…
