    Kansei x RO | Royal Origin Members

    Time has literally been my enemy lately. I’ve been juggling work, off-roading trips, my wife, weddings and more! There seems to be no time to just go cruise in my car and take some photos. I had one open Saturday and decided to hit up Phat and Ashton to shoot their cars with their new Kansei Corsa wheels.

    We got some sick rollers on the way to the location. Phat’s Cayman looks badass rolling.

    Best side roller of Phat’s Cayman.

    Ashton’s E90 M3 is a beast of a car.

    Sunset with two best friends.

    Ashton’s E90 M3 is so subtle, but looks aggressive as hell.

    Phat’s Cayman is the total opposite. No subtle asian traits here.

    Meaty fitment is the best fitment.

    The Kansei Corsa wheels fit perfectly on Ashton’s E90.

     

    Everyday is a battle.

    Ashton needs tighter clothes, Phat needs bigger clothes.

    Once in a while I actually wash my wheels.

    John does too, but today wasn’t the day. Check out that custom JDM brake dust action on his Rotiform wheels.

    It was finally here, the weekend of the Enjoy Sin car meet with HNRS. We’ve been counting the days, minutes and seconds to finally spend some good quality time with friends and family. One of my favorite things to take photos of during this event is the caravan to Vegas, it’s just such a thrill to see a bunch of modified cars cruising together on the freeway. This post will be mostly rolling shots of the caravan.

    Marq was hesitant about taking his 7 series to Vegas because of some transmission problems, but he ended up making it there with no problems and he only used half a tank to get from Cali to Vegas. Quite impressive for a big body BMW.

    Ryan Gold’s bright ass EVO was fun to shoot for rolling shots. Ryan made the trek with us all the way from Santa Barbara.

    This year we had faster cars in this caravan, but we paced it pretty well so Vu and I could get some good rolling shots of the caravan. Thanks Ashton for not going 0 to 130 real quick.

    Jeff’s WRX was my camera car and he did a great job catching up to everyone and pacing the car so I could get the best shots.

    Robros Customs let Vinh drive the STI to the meet. The wrap looked great in the sun.

    Derek pulled an all nighter to get his car ready for this trip. He spent the whole night wrapping his front end just to look decent for the meet.

    We finally made it to our first destination, the M Resort where they have a good deal for lunch at the Studio B buffet. It’s been a tradition that we hit this buffet first before doing anything else in Vegas.

    Sparkle’s M3 our Taiwan dealer of Royal Origin and HOODRATstuff also joined us in the caravan. Sucks, we missed his car for a rolling shot.

    After the buffet, we went to check in at the house we rented. The driveway was so large that it could have fit all of our cars, too bad some of us couldn’t make it up the driveway.
