00:29COMM THE MEMBERS SPENT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
00:30OF POUNDS AND COUNTLESS HOURS TURNING THEIR REGULAR CARS INTO MOVING, ROARING WORKS OF
00:36ART.
00:37COMM Here you have a 1998 Chevy two-door Tahoe.
00:42We converted the whole front end as you see, fenders.
00:45We added oversized wheels, 28-inch, fully engraved and painted.
00:50We added a nice mural on top of the hood, our caddy paint job, pearl paint job, and
00:55then some pin striping.
01:01Money-wise, it's very hard to pinpoint it, but a rough estimate would probably be $90,000
01:07to $100,000.
01:08I know it sounds like a lot to a lot of people, but also it's a build that has taken maybe
01:13four to four plus years.
01:17COMM First start doing it for, you know, the girls.
01:21Why lie?
01:22But eventually you do it so long, you're overlooked.
01:25That's not why you're building it.
01:26You fall in love with the builds and, you know, the attention the builds get and everybody's
01:29reaction of something different.
01:32When they first see our rides on the street or anywhere we're setting them up, first thing
01:36that comes out of people's mouth is, you know, wow.
01:39Second thing is why would you do that to a new car?
01:41Our car club is we try to go after the newest stuff and pretty much mess it up.
01:46The car is great.
01:48It's fantastic.
01:49It seems that there's no part of this car that's not customized.
01:57The paint is extraordinary, definitely has show quality.
02:01This vehicle is definitely above the top, but unique.
02:06We ran out of ideas on cars, so why not build a golf cart, right?
02:11We put some 14-inch rims on the golf cart, LEDs all the way on the bottom, halo lights.
02:15It's got TVs everywhere.
02:17We have an iPad that goes on the dash, Xbox 360 in the back, and actually this damn golf
02:22cart weighs probably as much as a car.
02:24I'm sitting on a good 12 batteries right now.
02:27You spend at least $5,000 just on these batteries.
02:31Despite the incredible amount of time and money involved in being a member of the club,
02:35it's grown exponentially since its inception in 2001.
02:39We started in Montebello, California.
02:42We've expanded to 28 chapters, including Texas, Florida, St. Louis, Chicago, New York, Arizona,
02:51Nevada, Utah, and now presently in Japan as well.
02:55Nocturnal as a club, I mean, now it's more like family.
02:59I've missed so many birthday parties, parties, and we've gone everywhere with these guys,
03:04with our members, you know?
03:05And sometimes they do more for you than your own family does.
03:09Everybody thinks I'm crazy in my family.
03:12They say I waste too much money on it, but my perks are different.
03:15My rewards are different.
03:17I grew up reading the Lowrider magazine here, always aspired to maybe one day come out in
03:22the magazine, but successfully we've won, and I'm a three-time champ when it comes to
03:28Lowrider.
03:29You say I'm obsessed with all these vehicles, but I don't call it obsessed, it's just, you
03:34know, what you love doing.
