KUSTOM PAINT ROAD TRIP: JAPAN/2005 AUTO SALON
The third trip to Japan as a painting team, and the tenth trip for Craig Fraser as an instructor: Dion, and Craig of Kal Koncepts/Air Syndicate hooked up with the boyz at Signal/Showup, and Nippon Paint to kustom up a couple of tricked out drift cars, and to start a kustom paint relationship that will bridge the 2 countrys. Keep an eye out for the new level of kustom paint involvement in not only street racing, but time trial, road racing, and most important the hotest new sport out there,...D1,...I'm talking "DRIFT!!" If you havent heard of it,...it's time you recognize.....Stay Tuned!.

I have no
idea waht this is,...but it is motorized,..runs on alchohol,....and
by the size: it looks like a 4 year old drives it at the solt flats.
That just makes it too kewl in my opinion!
Another view of the Celica.
This thing was one killer rolling billboard for Maziora/House of
Kolor. Even the logo on the hood is a combination of the two corporate
logos: The dragon, and the scarab. It symbolizes the new partnership
between Maziora/Nippon Paint, and Valspar/HOK in Japan. They are
now the main distributor, and rep for HoK in all of Japan!
These two rides got some
serious press at the event, including mag coverage from a number
of American magazines that were covering the show.
The hit of the show, The
Signal Skyline is being shipped to California in March for trials,
and actual Drift Racing. keep an eye out for it at a track near
you!
One of the final demos I did in the booth
was to Pinstripe the new Maziora bB Scion. This Toyota is a limited
edition available in Japan with the kustom Maziora paint right
from the factory,...man,...We need a House of Kolor Mustang,...or
something back home! All in all it was a successful trip, and
the end result is a limited partnership between Signal/Showup,
and Kal Koncepts/Air Syndicate. We are now the official instructors,
and kustom painters for the company, and are currently putting
together a curriculum for a master painters course to be offered
through Showup in Japan. Keep an eye out for the cars, and paint
in the states. We may be visiting Japan,...but Kal Koncepts/Air
Syndicate is gonna remain a competitive force in Cali for a long
time!
