Top 5 West Coast Customs Abominations
West Coast Customs builds anything and everything that celebrities desire... what could go wrong?
Last time, we melted our eyeballs looking at some of the travesties that come from Mansory. This week, we are taking a look at Mansory's less awful cousin, West Coast Customs. West Coast Customs is famous for making the dream cars of celebrities and, judging by this list, they turn down no project.
Join me as we feast our eyes on some truly tragic modified cars.
Honorable mention: Black Panther Lexus LC500
I wasn't sure where to rank this. On one hand, it is tacky and looks alarmingly similar to a car you would see at a bad tuner meet. On the other hand, it is simply just a promotional car for a movie. Sure it is tacky, but it was built for a very specific purpose, hence only an honorable mention.
#5 Tron R8
"Tacky" is a word that will be used a lot in this article. When your car looks like it belongs in a GTA V lobby, something has gone seriously wrong. Chrome is tacky alone, but combining it with glowy lights and lowrider wheels really is a crime.
#4 Jojo Siwa's BMW 4 Series
Okay... I know a lot of you will be upset that this isn't higher on the list, but hear me out. While the car looks awful for obvious reasons, as long as it is a wrap, it can be saved. It isn't like some of the next cars that are ruined to a more irreparable degree.
#3 Chris Brown's Gallardo
For some reason, this car reminds me of a fast-food restaurant. I wouldn't hate it as much if it weren't for the body kit. The rear is the worst part for sure. Apparently, this is called the "Hot Wheels Lamborghini." Regardless, it is seriously tacky.
#2 Justin Bieber's Rolls Royce Wraith
This was the cover photo for a reason. It is certainly a controversial design. WCC took a Wraith and attached a body kit that makes it look like it is a floating car from the future. Many said that he "ruined" the car, which is certainly arguable. As someone who really likes the look of the regular Wraith, this car is particularly offensive. However, I do respect how out there it is.
#1 will.i.am
Will.i.am is a repeat customer of West Coast Customs. Will.i.am has stated that he wants to start a car company called IAMAUTO and uses WCC to bring his visions to reality. Said visions are typically quite appalling. Below I will list them from bad to worse.
Will.i.am's DeLorean
I honestly don't hate this one. It is actually pretty cool. Apparently, Will.i.am didn't admit that it was a DeLorean underneath, but that was quickly debunked.
I really don't know what this is called.
This one is odd. I have no idea what they called it, and I can't find it anywhere. The design is a little bit odd and it is based on a Telsa Roadster, but it is unrecognizable. It looks a little like a real Hot Wheels car, more so than Chris Brown's Gallardo.
This one is more or less just a Tesla with a body kit and strange wheels. I don't have a lot to say about it.
This abomination started off as a beetle, which is already a questionable base. Other than that, it is just weird-looking. I do respect that it has a supercharged LS3, that's pretty sick.
Thanks for Reading!
Thanks for reading another one of my abomination articles. I hope I didn't hurt any feelings. Let me know what you think and if there are any companies that we should look into next.

I can’t vote. Everyone is more hellish and vile then the next. I don’t know who or what a “Jojo” is but she looks like a coked out real estate agent.
Idea for a poll:
Who makes dumber cars? Ryan at West Coast or that fat idiot at “unique rides”?
shea a 19-year old that pretends to be a 12-year-old and makes kid shows.
Omg. Thats creepy.
I know this is controversial but the wraith looks the best in my opinion. As much as I loathe Justin Bieber, it’s just a wraith with covered wheels and different taillights.
It’s nothing compared to JoJo Siwa’s glittermobile.
Is she permanently high or something? Like wtf.
Part of a Rolls Royce ownership experience, is that waft your travel enjoys. Total isolation from the outside world filled with the filthy proletariat. When you design wheel spats that do not allow for any suspension movement, you end up...
Read moreAll of the above was not an option.
West Coast Customs caters for people that know nothing about car design. Celebs give them a brief and some cash (presumably up front) and they interpret the owners request. What however seems to happen is that the request gets lost in translation and you end up with a monstrosity.
The Wraith however I’m strangely fascinated by as Beiber couldn’t buy that electric concept. So of all people he went to WCC to convert a Wraith into something similar. The problem is it’s a bit thunderbirds and Bieber should really have strings from his arms and legs.
Wait, you mean he doesn’t have strings from his arms and legs.
The unnamed super car thingy is quite bad. As for bieber's wraith, I dont mind it. I dont think it looks too bad
