FAVORITE MODIFICATION
"All of the one off parts on the car are my favorite, as the RL is more times than not overlooked in VIP culture because it isn't a true VIP chassis. When I decided to build it I knew it was going to take a lot of work to make it unique and stand out. With that making completely one off parts was necessary to get the car to the point to where it's at now. In addition, all of those parts brought Styled by KJ closer and made us innovate and really push ourselves creatively and execution wise."
FUTURE MODIFICATIONS
"Eventually I want to continue to push the envelope with the KA9 chassis. I want to relocate the gas tank into the trunk along with raising the floor of the car. I want it to be a mixture of the true VIP style with the body kits and tight fitment, but I also want to harness the Onikyan style VIP builds too of driving as low as possible."
