Show Off // Duta’s Accord on BC Forged
On today’s Show Off short article, we have a 2007 Honda Accord that’s been frequently seen at Jakarta’s recent meets and shows. Even though the seventh generation Accord has been around for 10 years by now, not many have been touched by owners’ customizations. To stand out from all those just-another-daily-driven Accords out there, Duta the owner has ordered these …

Permaisuri Thursday // Beetle on ERST Grora
Meet the Beetle. Arguably one of the most iconic cars ever built. Perhaps even as memorable as the Porsche 911, with a timeless design that has been passed over ever since it was introduced in 1938. However, unlike the 911 that still retains a rear-engine setup, VW has decided to relocate the Beetle’s engine to the front. Then also came …

We’ve always loved cars; we continuously admire other people’s builds through our site features. And we’re also dreaming of one day having our own ‘killer’ builds to be …

Permaisuri Thursday // MINI on HRE Vintage
Low is not enough. These days the “aggressive fitment” scene has been storming our car culture uncontrollably. They’re everywhere. No doubt, most lowered cars look mindblowingly stunning when paired with the right set of wheels. But let’s do keep in mind that being low is not everything; it’s not the end of the story. Throwing out the springs off your …

Mr Rare Rims // E30 on BBS
Mr Rare Rims. He’s like a father to me from another car world. I first met him when I bought a set of lips for my BBS RS back in 2009. He was a collector and seller for some of the most hard-to-find wheels and parts, with collections including a set of mirror finish Mugen MF10 17″ – a dream …

Show Off // F10 5 Series on MORR
Granted the F10 is one of the nicest-looking mid-size sedan out there right now (it has J.D. Power Most Appealing Midsize Premium Car 2013 award behind its back). While some other cars can take quite a few glances to get used to / admire (the Panamera for example), the F10 is a love-at-first sight for most. With its wide presence …

Show Off // Riph’s Celica on Work
For today’s Show Off article I’d like to present to you something rather unusual found on our streets: an aggressively lowered 2005 Toyota Celica! Built by Toyota during the early 2000s, this seventh generation Celica proved to be the last and the best iteration to Toyota’s compact sports car of the period. Light, nimble and arguably good-looking, the platform became …

Profound Warrior // Richard’s Aristo on BC Forged
The road less traveled. As you might’ve already noticed, most of the cars featured on our site have always been equipped with bolt-on made-for-a-specific-model aftermarket parts. Proper. Neat. And more importantly reliable. Whether it’d be a set of Kahn bodykit or iND custom painted parts or even the GT86 bolt-on turbo kit. We love all of these mods because they …

Permaisuri Thursday // 3 Series E90 on Modulare
One of the world’s most renowned sculptor once said, “simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” Simplicity? Well, looking at the current trends in the automotive customization industry these days, seems like the same concept is still greatly pursued. Some of the most admirable builds (such as this Beetle from Canibeat) look almost way too simplistic at one glance, yet a closer …

Permaisuri Thursday // F30 3 Series on DPE
Through the current gen of F30 3 Series, BMW has proven itself as the expert in designing sporty compact sedans. Which is actually not an easy task either, especially considering the fact that the F30 is larger in all aspects than the E90. How can you make a four-door sedan that’s longer than its predecessor look sportier than ever? Perhaps …

M-SICK // Edwin’s M6 on HRE
POWER. The single most substantial word that has always been synonymized with the letter M. Lots of power. Enough to get you from 0 to 100km/h in less than 4.5s. Enough to give you a brain concussion if your feet get just a little bit too excited during a corner. Risky. Breathtaking. Thrilling. Explosive. Like bungee jumping with your eyes …

Show Off // New Accord on HRE
On today’s Show Off article, I have a build that’s rather unusual. Starting things off, we have car that obviously hasn’t been seen too often on our streets these days – the New Honda Accord. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any other on the road in fact, apart from this one. But what’s most surprising of all is the …

Autocouture. A name has’t been heard too often these days. It’s a Japanese company manufacturing premium wheels and bodykits catered to continental rides, from Mercedes Benz to Rolls Royce. Being headquartered in Japan, the brand has unique Japanese VIP influences that have been carried over to most of its designs. Japanese cultures meet European luxuries. What I have today is …

Ground Level // Donny’s 330Ci on Work Meister
The BMW 3 Series. The best-selling model on BMW’s lineup. As what everybody might’ve known, I have, am and will always be the till-death-do-us-part BMW fan. It all started when I fell in love with the 3 Series chassis at my seventeen years of age. My dad gave his E30 to me as a birthday gift. A car he picked …

Show Off // William’s Skyline V35
Meet the Skyline V35. While most of you might’ve immediately thought of the R32-R34’s upon hearing the Skyline name, there’s actually a V35 produced after R34 production has stopped. Still a Skyline, but not a GT-R. Instead, the GT-R badge has been migrated by Nissan to become a separate lineup, leaving the Skyline name to become Nissan’s sporty-premium coupes and …
