00:00Some people like big and flashy cars.

00:03Mohamed Jai Din Mustafa, also known as Jai, prefers them small, really small.

00:15Over the years, Jai has been delighting clients and car lovers everywhere

00:20with his custom-made miniature car models.

00:24With customers all over the world, he has created over 900 cars,

00:28all of them highly detailed replicas of actual vehicles.

00:49Jai was introduced to the world of Hot Wheels in 2017

00:52and quickly became interested in customizing them.

00:56During the pandemic, he attempted his own customizations,

01:00shared them on social media,

01:02and was surprised by the demand for miniature cars.

01:06Starting out with Hot Wheels as the base for his creations,

01:09he eventually progressed to die-cast models

01:12and now works with 3D resin prints.

01:16Every model is crafted with care and precision.

01:19Jai is known for his intricately detailed Malaysian cars,

01:23such as the Pro2a Maibi, Proton Vira, and Proton Saga.

01:28Because some people, they're not a collector,

01:33but they order their own car because the car that they used before

01:40actually had total loss.

01:42So they love their car, right?

01:45So after they've done, they're very happy.

01:49Sometimes, maybe they can cry when they see.

01:54To him, cars are more than machines.

01:58They carry their owners through milestones,

02:00adventures, and everyday moments

02:02which become cherished memories.

02:04With smooth roads ahead,

02:28Jai certainly seems to be in top gear.
