What a crazy weekend that ended just how we wanted it to. From Freddies bday dinner at Roscoe’s, to the dinner at Famous Daves to end the weekend with all of the fam, it was just a fun filled and exciting weekend that was too good to be true. Though Freddies bday dinner post will come soon, i just have to say one more time HAPPY BDAY to Freddie. Without you bro, we wouldn’t be who we are today. But back to SpoCom. Once again, SpoCom Long Beach has come and gone, but not without memories to be had.

Though roll-in took a bit longer than usual, the show itself was just good times all around. Lots of entertainment was on hand at the main stage all day long. Dance competitions, bikini show and a lingerie show helped pass the time between looking at cars… and looking at more boobies. Lots of car show competitors were on display along with a good amount of vendors on hand to show off alot of new products that they have. Some even got a bit creative with there displays. For example, Sparco put up there Evo X on 4 tool boxes and just awed people at the craziness of it all.

We, thankfully, got to win a couple trophies ourselves for all of our hard work that we’ve put into our projects over the years. So congratulations to Joe for getting the 1st place sword, that matches his car a bit, as well as to Kevin for getting 2nd place. All in all it was a good event for us. Got to hang out with the usual fam as well as people we don’t get to see all that often due to distance. But myself, along with Freddie, truly appreciate everyone we can call friends/family. We enjoy the time spent with everyone and that’s what these events are all about. Being able to spend time with those you care about. So until next time, take care. Alright Alright!!!

What a day!  I dont even know how to start off.  As some of you know we have a meet every other wednesday just to hang out with everyone and enjoy the times.  This time around we decided to go to the fair.  It only comes around once a year and we usually go at least once.  This time was EPIC!  I thought I laughed alot at the IMS event but after this night my face hurt like hell.  Its always a good time with the AF fam!  Even Big Steve came down to enjoy the fair!  Ill let the pictures again tell the story!  All i have to say is THANKS EVERYONE for a great time!  Also have to give big props to Brian for being the entertainment of the night and being a great sport about it!   We told him that we weren’t going to post up the pics but we have to because we would like the whole world to share the fun!!!

Sunday May 23rd marked the 10 Year Anniversary of Extreme Autofest which was held at the home of the San Diego Chargers, Qualcomm Stadium. As with most events, Autofashion has built a close relationship throughout the years and showed support by setting up a booth with our truss setup, canopy, DJ set-up and if you didn’t hear that, we had our flags that flew high in the air to let people know our presence.  JDM, VIP, Euro, DUB, Lowrider and misc. styles were on hand at this show and as usual we had a vast array of cars displaying in our booth alongside the mixture of vehicles at the show as you can see by our pictures.

While I walked around the show as I wound up with coverage duties. I found that each style was represented quite well. I thought to myself, why can’t all shows we go to be like this? It’s nice to walk around and see LoLo’s standing 3wheel and a few steps later walk right into an Old school Skyline or even a hot rod? Truth is, there isn’t any other show like Autofest, whether you’ve had bad experiences with judging in the past, had a mishap with staff, or just hated the heat, it’s an event to attend and them having been around for 10 years shows something is being done right. With the love Autofest has shown us, we’ll be there to support for as long as we can. Until the next event, Spy you lat… I mean see you later!

Going from an all Toyota meet to an all Honda meet is a giant change of scenery. The annual Eibach meet, where almost every Honda head gathers to every year here in lovely SoCal, just happened and AutoFashion was on hand playing music for everyone to enjoy. Thanks again to Dj A1 and Rolondo for spinnin for us during the event, couldn’t ask for anything more.

We brought the 2 AF integras that we’re in the process of still building. They aren’t the flashiest or the trendiest or the most “hellaflush/hellacambered” cars out there, but they’re both super dope in there own right and has just the right amount of flavor to be unique.

Building a Honda to be unique is a hard task for just about anyone. So many fake kits, fake wheels, fake parts, etc. run rampant through this scene. But every so often there are cars that go beyond the others and just do there car justice. For example, Big Mikes prelude. You just can’t touch that thing. It’s unique in every sense of the word and i don’t see any other prelude that can match up to his, at least not anytime soon. Also of course, my personal favorite of the show, the Laguna Seca blue s2k. Sure, it has the same kit as like 6 other s2k’s that were there, but his car/color/wheel combo is just perfect to me and i wouldn’t mind driving that car. None at all.

After walking around literally hundreds and hundreds of Hondas, I’m glad we were there. Not just to enjoy the Honda scene in it’s current form, but also to support our friends that were, catch up with them after so long and just enjoy something new that we don’t often get to experience. Thanks again to everyone who stopped by the booth and said hello. We appreciate all your support.

FYI – To some Honda drivers… please stop being douches. Your cars trying to run me off the road, or cutting me off with literally no space in front of me and then zooming off to end up right back in front of me no less than 10 seconds later. Yah, fuck you. There’s absolutely NO reason to be doing this. Your the reason the honda scene gets such a bad rep. All you needed to do was exit and go to the meet. Next time, please think about the lives you’re endangering with your reckless stupidity that really has no gain other than you wasting gas and acting a fool.

T.O.R.C is the official show to go to if you’re a fan of anything Toyota/Lexus/Scion. Cars gather at the Queen Mary in Long Beach every year to enjoy and celebrate everything that is under that infamous Toyota flag.

As usual, everything you can imagine is put up on display by owners and some vendors. Cars on display range from early production models, rare jdm cars that you NEVER see and even soon to be released vehicles like the Scion iQ.

We, AutoFashion, try and do our best to support such a great event. We’ve been supporting this event ever since we had the Scion xA built by Freddie over 5 years ago. We’ve been to the show every year and never get tired of it. The great thing about this event is that it’s completely free, though you do have to pay for parking. So you really don’t have an excuse to not go.

We did bring out a couple cars. Big Steve made his debut in SoCal at the event and it was the last show my car would be attending for awhile. We also had 3 xb’s display, each known for obvious reasons and a corolla. We gave out stickers and any goodies like always and just enjoyed ourselves in the booth.

If you’re a true fan of anything Toyota related or even just like seeing nice Japanese classics, it’s definitely worth your time to go. We’ll always support this show as we’ve grown to love Toyota, especially Lexus, over the years and that will never change.

This time around, instead of the whole AF crew just mobbin up to San Mateo, it was Big Steve and I reppin for AF as the Revue show was happening on the same day. This was a big event, at least for us, as we debuted the redesign of Big Steve’s LS. It’s been a long time since anyone has seen it and I’ll be the first to say the wait was DEFINENTLY worth it. Seeing him drive around, dumped all gangsta, it was a sight to behold.

The show itself was long as roll-in was around 8am and we didn’t get out of there til maybe 11ish at night. It was a decent show to say the least. Coming from LB Spocom to this was a big difference as the venue was a bit smaller than I expected, but some events during the course of the day made it all worth it. First off, besides going up there to support Falken and check out the NorCal show scene, we went up there to win! We did expect Metal Sword trophies like the previous events along with cash prizes, but those ended up going to top honor cars, so were a bit bummed out on that. But the one thing that made up for all that was the Model FIGHT… I didn’t get to see. Yes there was a model fight and you can youtube it to find out what happened, but yah a model fight happened over some BS which I find hilarious. But, we did end up winning. Big Steve got 2nd place VIP and I received 1st place VIP and 2nd place lexus!

Though it was a long drive and kind of bitter about the trophies/cash prizes, it was fun. Spending time with fam and just being somewhere different was great. Until the next event, catch yah later!

For a meet that had only 2 weeks to put everything together, I think they had a great turn out. Lots of cars came out to support the meet in its entirety. Since it was at the Power Toyota dealership in Cerritos, it was a Lexus/Toyota/Scion show. Though it was limited to one manufacturer, there was enough variety showing that made it a lot more interesting than a lot of other meets.

It was good just meeting with friends we haven’t seen in awhile and kickin back talking it out. The next meet should be way bigger with a lot more room for cars as they can get the extra floors above the service building. We didn’t bring our cars this time, but next time it’s game on. Congrats again to the meet throwers and we can’t wait for the next one. For now, enjoy our coverage!
