Synopsis
Street Customs highlights the talents of car-customising star Ryan Friedlinghaus and his unorthodox approach to managing his West Coast Customs family of artisans and technicians.
The series features the process behind the builds and showcases West Coast Customs' original designs that have propelled them to the top of the car-tuning game.
Each episode chronicles the boundary-busting cars that epitomise the street edge, passion and craftsmanship that West Coast Customs represents - and that owner Ryan Friedlinghaus demands.
The builds range in scope from customising modern-styled street rods to chopping up $100,000 luxury vehicles. These creations have an impressive client list to match, including sports icons, the Hollywood elite and famous car aficionados.
West Coast Customs houses craftsmen skilled in all aspects of car building under one roof, allowing viewers to explore the drama of each build from conceptualization to execution.
Street Customs is produced at West Coast Customs' shop in Corona, California.
