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 …

Sound of Glory // Arie’s C63 AMG on BC Forged
If there’s ever a car lacking an audio system and yet I wouldn’t be complaining about, it’s going to be the C63 AMG. I’m not entirely sure as to what Mercedes has done in the engine and piping compartment, but the noise that this thing makes is downright magnificent. Rumbly grumps with just the right amount of boom. It almost …

Daily Retreat // CLS63 AMG on BC Forged
Supercars. Built to bend physical boundaries using their future-proof technologies and magnificent performance figures. Minimal weight. Maximum output. Incredible downforce. Fancy gadgetries and aerodynamics.

Carbon Craze // Stanley’s SLK on BC Forged
These days more and more people are starting to do fancier candy-colors for their wheels. White car on colorful wheels, for example, are becoming common sights these days. I remember seeing a white BMW 1M wearing orange wheels at #MORNINGFLICK the other day. Definitely striking and daring to be different. Despite the attractiveness of those colorful wheels, a lot of …

Snappy Hatch // Turbo Fiesta on BC Forged
When it comes to modifying cars, we are often faced with tough decisions on whether or not to compromise things along the way. Should I install a custom-fitted turbo? Will it be safe? Reliable? But what should I do, then, if there’s really no bolt-on turbo kit in existence out there for my beloved car? Should I really just get …
Read MoreHere to Stay // SVR Ferrari 360 Modena
Couple of months ago me and some friends went to Grand Indonesia around 9PM Saturday night to catch a movie. Out of the usual, the parking area was still all full and overly crowded even at that time of the night! Long story short, as it turned out, the Galaxy S4 was launched in the mall’s atrium on that same …

The Continentals // Euro Group Shoot
Contrary to the popular belief, I do think that modifying modern cars these days aren’t easy. To get that extra ‘oomph’ from the vehicle without sacrificing something else seems to be almost inconceivable. In a worst case scenario, one can even end up with an inferior item compared to the one which has just left the factory. Lowering your car …

Bad Boy // Telesto Grigio BMW E60
What if. What if you have all the time and money in the world to build the cars of your dreams. Anything. Any car. Any wheels. Any color you can think of. Any price. Would you buy a Veyron and call it a day? Would you hunt down the first car you’ve ever owned and purchase it back for all …

True Black // Matte Black GT86 on BC Forged
For most people, the easiest and most attractive way to be different in the kaleidoscope of car culture is to have bright unusual colours painted over the car’s body. Edbert’s Odyssey, for example, demonstrates how the attractive red candy paint has transformed the family van into a stylish VIP ride. Some, however, are going the exact opposite route. Murdering out …

The F10 5 Series with M5 kit I’m showing you off today is one of them. As you might’ve known by now, I’ve always put …

Black Pearl // Audi A4 on BC Forged
Mystique, murky, fierce, often bold and cold. Black is the majesty of the dark. Making friends with shadows and hazes, black entities often go very much unnoticed. The Dark Knight opted for its all-black suit for a reason. To blend with its own shadows. To move swiftly unnoticed. To create that element of surprise. To be feared. The same goes …

Dual Tone // F10 5 Series on BC Forged
