    WFC Venice Beach 2012

    This past weekend was the Wrong Fitment Crew meet in Santa Monica/Venice Beach. It was a highly anticipated meet since many websites, blogs, and forums were promoting the event. We all planned to meet up bright and early so we could all roll deep together to the meet, but that did not happen. Some of us met in Irvine and others met in Walnut. Fortunately, I live in the Walnut area, so I thought I could wake up 10 minutes before the meet-up time & still make it. Well, that was not the brightest idea. Since I woke up late, everyone else who was caravanning with us ended up being late as well (sorry everybody), and on top of that, the fact that I have an unfunctional car did  not help. We had to take two extra freeways because I could not use the normal 10 freeway (sorry again). But, after all the hecticness, we finally arrived in Santa Monica.

    We arrived around 10:30 A.M. Once we got there, our caravan was lost. There were so many cars coming from every direction, so we had to let people in between us. We waited about 15 minutes on the main street that led us to the parking lot, but we all ended up waiting for nothing because we soon found out that the parking lot was full, and the police were not letting anyone in. We somehow all managed to meet up again and parked in a parking lot across from the event.

  • The Night Ends.

    The Night Ends.

    It has been awhile since some of us have seen each other and been able to hangout. So, we decided to go to our old familiar hang out spots to just hang out like the good old days. This familiar place is called “The Lair.” Why? Because this is the place we would always end our night of doing hoodrat stuff together. It is an awesome place to be and the lighting there is quite interesting; always get some memorable shots.

    A quick video filmed and edited by Shavi W. of what the Lair is about. Friends and good times.

    Three perfect examples of the good-side of the Honda community, which we all hear negative things all the times, whether it is the driver or the car itself.

  • So You Think You Can Stance?

    So You Think You Can Stance?

    A couple of days ago Tony Lee of Its JDM Yo hosted a competition/car meet to promote his 2 year anniversary car show. When we first heard of “So You Think You Can Stance?” We thought hmm… that sounds pretty cool something different and out of the ordinary.

    So We got to the event early to setup and check it out. It did not take too long for the parking lot to get packed. Lots of flashy cars, and a couple of vendors with their booths up trying to sell/market their merchandise. Just an overall fun event with our various friends again.

    It is rare to see fully built AE86 coupe these days let alone a clean stock one…

  • Raw Meat

    Raw Meat

    Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Vinh Luong. You guys may know me as the guy with the Red STi. I am new to this whole blog scene, so don’t be too tough on me. Over the past weekend, the good homies of Wrong Fitment Crew (WFC) threw their 2nd Annual “WFC Raw Meat BBQ”. So I decided to swing by and say whatsup to everyone.

    So the morning started out cold and rainy… Not an ideal weather for BBQ’ing

  • Autocon Collaboration 2011

    Autocon Collaboration 2011

    This year’s Autocon 2011 in Irvine, California was a huge success with over 4,000 attendees, 450 cars, 30 vendors, 15 food trucks, and many models who came out that day. We would like to take the time to thank everyone on the Autocon staff that helped put this event together. Even though, the focal point are these cars at the event, it is mainly about the donations and donated toys that this event was able to accumulate for the less fortune for the holiday season.

    Royal Origin & CO

    Here is my video coverage of the Canibeat and Royal Origin collaboration. Over 30 cars met up very early in the morning; we were even able to see the very last lunar eclipse of the year at the same time! Then drove down together as a group to roll in and organize at the show. Once again it was good meeting all our old and new friends to enjoy the day together, even if it was a very long day at that. This was an excellent way to end the year, before the show season starts up again in 2012.

  • Searching For New Locations

    Searching For New Locations

    Exploring new locations to take photos of cars is always a challenge. For the kind of cars we have, we’re always worried about speedbumps, dips, train tracks and other road obstacles that aren’t friendly to our cars. Finding the perfect spot with a nice background and a good amount of space that won’t lure any security or local authorities isn’t as easy as it seems. Today, some of the guys and I decided to search for new spots around town. We had already covered everyone’s individual spots that they have discovered, but we felt the need to broaden our locations from simple parking structures and dead end streets.

    Here are a few snaps of our little adventure, as we continue to explore new places, angles, and placements, you can be sure that you’ll find more posts from us coming soon!
