At the same time, a new car’s culture also is on the rise which is customized. Actually, the fans watched and refitted customized car with growing fascination.
The earliest customized car is come from racing. In U.S. which called the country on wheels, auto industry has a long history. Generally, There are 2 ways to modified our cars.

Now fans are not afraid, although they know there’s much to fear. Therefore there are still some group of people such as iAcaro show people how to customized cars without break the law. They try their best to prove that the reason of cars’ owners modified their cars is because they love the culture rather than show off and break the law. This is why there is a short video for iAcro in the blog.
