Been a little over a year since I’ve fallen off of the blogosphere, but I had to dust off my account login to post up a recap of my first RWB build experience last weekend. Aside from witnessing Nakai at work, what was almost more awesome was connecting and reconnecting with fellow enthusiasts from all…
Here’s a series of shots during the RWB Ramune build taken by our in house graphics and photographer, Michael Javier. The focus of the shoot was to capture the different phases of Nakai during a build. It goes beyond cutting a Porsche up, riveting flares on, and adding wide wheels. It’s all about the details…
