Shift Season Opener presented by Detail Rack 707 and West Coast Hydrographix
I realize when you begin to work on your own projects you have the tendency to get behind on a lot of “other” things. One being event coverage. I’ve been keeping to myself as of late to figure out some stuff after parting ways with Wheelwell in early January. Never officially mentioned it outside of my […]
Osaka Auto Messe Coverage Part 2
Part 2 of my Osaka Auto Messe coverage will have cars not particular to VIP Cars. Osaka Auto Messe was a great experience for me. I got the opportunity to see cars that I normally saw online or just simply followed their owners via social media outlets. Like I mentioned in the first part, I […]
Osaka Auto Messe Coverage Part 1
It’s been years since I have been back to Japan. Osaka Auto Messe is also one event that I never got a chance to attend. This year, I had my sights set on Osaka Auto Messe because it’s notoriously known for its VIP Car builds that attend. While Tokyo Auto Salon brings out the big […]
Wekfest Hawaii 2017
Right now I am in my 24 hour “layover” from Hawaii to Japan. I came home for 24 hours after working at Wekfest Hawaii before heading to Osaka, Japan to finally attend Osaka Auto Messe. This year’s Hawaii trip to kick off the 2017 Wekfest Tour was a blast. It was nice to get away from […]

Toyo Tires x Super Street Meet – Northern Cali edition
Earlier in the year, Toyo Tires and Super Street did a calendar launch meet in Southern California. Today, they brought the same meet up to Northern California and we couldn’t be happier about it. We knew a storm was brewing a few days before the event and so we were debating on going or not. […]

StanceNation Texas Coverage
Words / Photography : Nick Lopez “AirMax” of Jspek.com Only recently have I started going to carshows again to actually enjoy the cars rather than just hang out with friends. I decided a few months ago to take a long weekend and go to Dallas for StanceNation TX in hopes that I wouldn’t be let […]

VIP Lounge Episode 15 Podcast

VIP Lounge Episode 13 Podcast
Unlucky number 13! We waited until the NBA Finals were over to record so I personally was siting on a high that I got when watching the Finals with my boys. Chris however, as one of the few true Lebron fans I know, was feeling the loss. Sorry bud! I love the Bay Area and […]

VIP Lounge Episode 10 Podcast
Here is Episode 10 of our VIP Lounge Podcast. I would be lying to you if I said I wasn’t feeling a bit of stress this past week. Being in full swing on the Wekfest tour plus trying to startup a new venture, my mind can be a bit erratic. Thankfully there is this Podcast […]
VIP Lounge Episode 9 Podcast
Usually I just listen to a podcast just once after I finalize it and then post it up. This episode I actually found myself listening to this a couple times before I realized I needed to get it posted. My bad! This week we had the honor of having Joey Lee from The Chronicles as […]
New VIPStyleCars / VIP Lounge shirts are available
