Akira Nakai DESTROYS Porsches!!!

[@bloodykills7509]

I can't help but respect Nakai for not giving a shit what anyone thinks and continues to do what he does

[@Josh-th8by]

I’ve seen all the videos and negative comments about the tow hook but that was done upon the owner of the Porsche request cause it had a large front mount intercooler that was in the way and he wanted it done for pictures so he had him just temporarily glue it. “He uses screws for the fenders” yeah to line up the fender for mounting before using rivnuts, like ever other fiberglass widebody. He’s been doin it for 20+ years, that why it looks easy👍 There’s also a 2 plus year wait for him to come install so that gives the customers time to get the car exactly how they want before the kit is installed making it the cherry on top of the build and it starts at 40k for kit

[@tatacraft791]

it's 40k for 4 fender flares and labour tho...

[@Josh-th8by]

[@Arcella1981]

@@WayaWolf it would be funny if he is doing all this on purpose, like purposely lowering the standards to see how much he can get away with and still be called an amazing car artist

Drew teaching us the dark side of each “tuner” company, already did it with Pimp my ride, the next one is Liberty Walk, i cannot wait to see his opinion.

[@Fawnyboi]

I personally like how they look, i think rwbs are art oriented more than anything. Akira isn't a professional either. He is a professional in his own rights, but he doesn't do the work a professional body shop does. He does it his way, and i think that's part of why he's so popular and legendary. He came out of nowhere and made some of the coolest looking cars.

[@siamr8900]

It doesn’t destroy the car . It looks great . The only thing i dont like is they charge too much money for fiberglass bodykit . Atleast they could use carbon fiber or aluminium

[@joshjackburns]

Whatever the case may be though, RWB 911’s are designed for the track, that’s usually why they look kinda rough, in Japan the RWB club will have frequent track days where they apparently thrash the shit out of these cars, I don’t really think they’re designed as show cars necessarily

[@mbochum83]

4:35 The car's owner clarified on IG that he asked for the tow hook to be glued on temporarily for a photo shoot. He's since fabricated an actual mount that the tow hook is mounted to.

Don’t forget early saleens had wood screws holding on the body kits too lol

[@BlueBull81]

Drew, no glaze, I did some searching on the tow hooks, and they are in fact bolted. the clip where he tapes/glues the tow hook was done due to the owner wanting a finished photo of the vehicle and he didn’t have the clearance or time to bolt it, he went back later on to finish it. There are numerous rwb owners who came out after that clip to clarify they are indeed bolted

[@eeNPeeCee]

Yea thats what i read too

[@EconomicsMate1]

I wouldn't say its rice at all. The kits are inspired by the raing Porsche 911s of the 70s, 80s and 90s. Hence the wide body's.

[@da_gecko16]

Rice stands for race inspired cosmetic enhancent btw

Most of the cars are panel bonded together, how is it any different for the wide body kit? The tow hook was bad though. I think he should be using grade 8 button head bolts though.

[@yahik_o]

The glued towhook was only for a picture because it was a strict time limit it was properly installed later on

[@Johanozoju]

The increasing RWB's making normal clean Porsche's more appreciating in a good way. RWB uplifts the porsche brand with Nakai's touch and bringing a classic japanese style fitting for these cars makes it so special. So really it depends on the owner you can't get wrong getting one or staying stock.

[@Obsidian_Mirror]

There used to be a ruby star RWB 964 here in Pittsburgh. That car was BEAUTIFUL. Owner sold it, moved to California, and then had another RWB built that isn’t nearly as nice imo.

[@JanaTernonva-m5x]

This mood in here is everything!

[@HornyHamster]

[@sixpest]

Oh... So. That means RWB is really for people who dont enjoy their cars. Because even on a Honda Civic we know An amazon wing or fenders need to be attached with *HARDWARE* *These cars probably fall apart if you actually drove them* 🤣 Don't get me wrong they look fantastic, Widebody kits will always look amazing. But if I have to baby a sports car like a Porsche Count me out. I want to Use my cars and have Fun.

[@DinnieRosle]

for me, its more to the brand its self. thats Nakai-san ways to build art piece, dont care how others thinks of about his build. in polite way to say, its "FU in your face" build. but still ALOT car guys wants him to do the build on their cars. so, different people different taste.

From what I understand, a lot of the cars are used on tracks... There's one he made with a pretty wild looking exhaust from about a decade ago that was mainly used on tracks. I'm so far out of the car game now, most of my research is old AF in regards to these kinds of mods. My concerns have changed. Edit: That fucking tow hook is absolutely not bolted on. Those are the holes where you are supposed to put a 10mm. LOL. People are so blind and have never turned a wrench.

No no. I would not have it. I like Lincoln Town Cars. It's just what I drive and everyone at work always talks about this other car like mine in this town where I live ok but the other car has a soft top on it. It does look cool but I know what it would look like if you took the soft top off. There would be rust and screw holes. My car doesn't have all that bs all over it. No glued on chrome strips or any of that. It was hard to find one without all that crap that wasn't a base model. My car has everything the real fancy ones have without the two tone paint and all that. Most of them look kinda goofy with the paint except Iv seen one I did like I think it had grey on the bottom part but it looked cool. The others just weren't the right colors for all that. Anyway they guy with the glue and the tow hook jeez. Why? Really goofy stuff some people really dig I don't understand it. I like your videos and all the crap you talk about these people's taste in cars is right on point. When you have so much money I guess you get bored and start doing what some people would call strange. More power to them I guess. No point in a tow hook after the crash if you can just leave it there and go buy a brand new one. Idk

Personally, I have done my little research on it from a few channels and all that stuff, read the story, honestly, he is great at the widebodies and that, altho I didn't knew about the towhook shit, that thing is definitely not idea when reagrding quality, but if we take that out of the equation, he is qute good, altho kinda polemic because in the eyes of some people this is great, in the eyes of others doing that to a Porsche is sin, altho definitely overrated by those 12 yo kiddos

Will a Porsche realistically tow anything though?, I think its just there for aesthetic value, at the end of the day like bosozoku, its really more artistic expression as opposed to practicality. People forget art is rarely practical and if this guy is personally coming out and doing the work, that's respectable. Its not meant for serious racers at the end of the day, so who cares.
