if F&F series was filmed locally you can bet so many members here will sign up

[320icar]

to be realistic, an asian gang locally should be fuelled by mom and dads wallet in new m3's, any AMG and a bunch of maserati's stuck in 1st gear

wtf are you talking about?

you think every asian gangster have a wealthy background?

your responses are always so "know it all" and ignorant, especially in the riders corner.

[StylinRed]

zilley are you seriously trying to defend local asian gangsters just cuz you find 320 to be a douche? :lol

[Mr.Money]

if they can't name a price..It's gon be shit Pay,so if you have nothing to do & want to collect 5 dollars...:whistle:

[20psi]

Yea I imagine it'll be a couple hundred bucks per day, I was just passing on the message.

[flagella]

All the $14 dolla per hour balla will be signing up.

[CCA-Dave]

...you might be surprised. I rent the '58 beetle out to a production in Vancouver, and my requirement is that I am the one driving the car at all times. Between the vehicle rental rate they offered me, and the hourly rate as an extra, it works out to being a very well paid day.

I'd never just rent my car to the production, however, and the pay as an extra alone isn't worth the time. Combined is where it makes sense.

What's your problem bro? I treat the Internet (especially revscene) as a fun pass time and don't let my jimmies get rustled. And you say especially in the riders corner? How do you come up with that answer?

[Phil@rise]

Someone is very out of touch with reality. This isnt 1995. Asian gangsters dont drive rice rockets lol.

[zilley]

zilley are you seriously trying to defend local asian gangsters just cuz you find 320 to be a douche? :lol

aint trying to back anyone up.

just thought his response was rather ignorant.

why would a rich asian need to gang bang when they have money from parents?

[Urrtoast]

You would think a gang would have some money from the practices.

[GS8]

Looks like a job for Status 105

[320icar]

What, you can't run a train on somebody if you're wealthy?

Somebody should send a bunch of UBC students driving Ferrari, Lambo, Porsche, etc to this Bob guy just to troll him. He needs a reality check big time. :troll:

If the producers of "Lucifer" want realism and not mommy powered maserati's. This particular vehicle is what asian gangsters are known to use...

Because he make joke......

Regardless of that, all the fucking loser crack dealing pieces of shit from my childhood came from rich families who bought them anything and everything. Bunch of retards trying to be hard. Most of them either ended up in jail, killed by someone else, or by themselves. Nothing to do with asian though, they came from all types of ethnic background.

[Limitless]

so are you finally admitting to having a flashy rice rocket?
:troll:

If it gets me on TV why not :lawl: But actually yeah, I'm starting to stray a bit from the clean look and more into a flashier look with carbon canards and whatnot I have planned. Kinda bored with just being subtle :(

[mk1freak]

So you emailed?
Inb4 14 dolla balla is seen in ur ride :lawl:

[spoon.ek9]

too bad my car isnt a rice rocket :troll: all bout that clean honda game

In the eyes of the general public, we're ALL ricers.

wouldn't mind some spending money......

[XplicitLuder]

^ yup. was gonna send pictures see if i make it but then car broke down LOL

[omg260z]

ask if this is ricey enough http://i893.photobucket.com/albums/ac133/lingazin/20150321_204308.jpg (http://s893.photobucket.com/user/lingazin/media/20150321_204308.jpg.html)

[white rocket]

^^I've been told many times that white does not do well behind the camera. Filmers usually look for bright vibrant colors.

In the eyes of the general public, we're ALL ricers.

100%. To the average joe, a fully built Supra or RX-7 is the same as a Sunfire or Cavalier with a body kit.

[LC21]

Ill come out! :whistle:

^This. I emailed the guy and he said my evo is a no go because it's white

[SpuGen]

Well shit. All of my cars are pearl white.
The fuck.

[meme405]

Hmmm. My car is a bright flashy rice rocket...:whistle:

EDIT: Actually just sent an email, depending on timing, one of my family members is pretty available she could take my car down to them, would be kinda cool to see it on TV I guess. Overall why not do it...

[spoon.ek9]

I didn't even get a reply :lol

racist film makers hating on us whities :QQ:

Edit: nevermind, I just got an email. Pics of my car will be presented to the producers soon lol.

[meme405]

Just got a call (I had my number in the email).

Said they already have a blue car in the scene (a low rider, so I guess they are going for a few different style cars, not just rice rockets).

He said the colour of my car was pretty good though, and was wondering how okay I would be with having my car driven a short distance as well as having people in the car. I said I didn't really care, he said he would be in touch after my car was presented to the people who decide.

Honestly actors getting in and out of my car can't do any more damage than my dumbass friends do when they ride with me... so whatever...lol

[J89]

Asian gangster's like myself drives g35's, 2006-08 mercs, e92 328i coupes, and rebuilt TL's.

Srs.

:smug:

[jackp0t]

Here's the reply I got

Hi thanks for the pics. If chosen by the Director would you have any issues with an actor driving your car about a 100 feet, may have 2 or 3 actors in your car, no stunts slides anything that would harm your car.
Thanks Bob b "

[spoon.ek9]

must be copying and pasting those replies

[!e.lo_]

shit, I've got one hell of a rice rocket.
Honda? check!
Yellow? check!

Big ass wing? Hells yea!

and it's a Honda! I got one too!

[hk20000]

Sent him an email seeing how he had a blue car on screen he might want a yellow car for that contrast....

but not sure if Asian gangsters wanna roll in a station wagon. Lots of space for your "stash" in there but.....eh?

ohh, are you the yellow type-r with purple te37's? If so I live right near where you work :p

[ts14]

I donate my accord

[Berzerker]

My car was used a couple times for shows and for doing nothing you get paid. My stipulation was that I drove and moved my own car as well. The Union doesn't really like it but they sometimes will let you.

Berz out.

Yep. she's super dirty right now. also hate driving her daily...

Since people are actually doing it, sent in my email LOL. From this angle it looks kinda flashy/ricey lmao, minus the fact that black is kind of hard to see :(

[HondaGuy]

Received a call from one of the main scouters I know 10+ years ago asking if I was interested unfortunately busy now.
Funny thing is I didnt even send any interests in this casting...mustve been all those movies and castings I did long ago.

Hope some rs cars get picked...its fun on the set and get to meet more production ppl...
Truth is they arent seeking ricey cars but more tastefully modded and clear well done themed.

[meme405]

Guy just called they want my car on set for Thursday, Friday and Saturday next week.

I'm supposed to be in Edmonton for work, so I don't know what my options are, but I'll make it work, seems like it would be fun, so I'd like to be there myself, but if I can't make it because of work I will send someone with the vehicle.

[freakshow]

how much does a gig like this pay?

[320icar]

I have Friday Saturday off but no Thursday. Can't help yah :p

[ilovebacon]

one of the film studio used my buddies house as a set and in return they got 5k out of it

[meme405]

how much does a gig like this pay?

It's actually better than I would have thought, but nothing worth missing work over just for the pay. Only reason I would want to be there is for the experience, like I said, I think it'd be cool to see.

I have Friday Saturday off but no Thursday. Can't help yah :p

Haha, I've actually asked a couple buddies, but not easy finding someone who has thursday and friday off in the middle of the day (especially since they don't really know when exactly they will need the car, or how long it will take).

Worst comes to worse, I'll have someone drop the car off, and just leave it with them. The guy said the car would be under guard.

Only thing that sketches me out about that, is someone messing with the air ride settings. Best solution I can think about that, is to just air the car up to like a reasonable height and then just disconnect the touchpad so nobody can fiddle with the ride height.

[meme405]

Okay well Car has been on set since yesterday afternoon. Will be there until saturday night:

Weird experience, i'll post more on it later maybe.

Filming is luckily from 3pm to like 3am, so I don't really have to take time off work, and I can still be there to make sure everything is okay.

Side Note: They had to apply some sort of tint to my headlights in order to dim them for the camera, ended up really messing up my headlights lenses. Now I have to deal with that, which really sucks cause my headlights are pretty customized...

[white rocket]

Kinda figured that puke green G2 would be there. It's been around so long that's it's almost coming back into style. Well not really. Just wanted to say something nice about it. Haha!

[meme405]

Lol.

It's actually like this really crazy gold colour. Yeah the car has been around forever.

It's got a good story actually, I've had a lot of time on set to talk to the other two owners.

He bought the Teggy brand new in 1993, when he was in HS. He's owned it ever since, and he admits the entire thing was done just to win trophies. The car is far from perfect, it is getting really old now, and lots of the mods have been done for years, and trying to keep up with it is probably pretty hard.

Nonetheless yeah the car is certainly an oddball, but it's just so over the top, that you can't help but look at it, and want to check it out. I mean he has TV's in the floors where your feet go, TV screens in the headrests facing forwards. Its fucking nuts.

[meme405]

Someone just reminded me about this, and I figured others might be looking for an update as well.

The car was on set for a total of 3 days, my car was one of three being utilized by the "baddies" in that episode; some sort of Latin street gang.

At first the experience was nerve wracking, dropping off my car and leaving it in someone's hands who I barely know was pretty scary, but the first day I got on set I was informed I was welcome to stay and watch as long as I wanted. After the first day my fears we're completely eased.

They had one individual specifically tasked with watching our 3 cars, and keeping them safe. This individual turned out to be one of the best people ever, he went to ends of the world to keep the cars safe and clean. Even covering them in car covers at night and so on.

With that said there was a bit of an incident with some tinting film on my headlights:

http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s52/meme405/IMAG0439_zpsbssk71lv.jpg (http://s149.photobucket.com/user/meme405/media/IMAG0439_zpsbssk71lv.jpg.html)

This was resolved promptly and the company paid for the damages and all was resolved smoothly with no issues on their end. I already have new headlights built and in bound.

Quick shot they probably wouldn't want me posting from set (meh fuck it):

http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s52/meme405/IMAG0434_zpsbg1mst4k.jpg (http://s149.photobucket.com/user/meme405/media/IMAG0434_zpsbg1mst4k.jpg.html)

Overall it was pretty cool to be involved with something like this, and getting to see what goes on is quite fun. The food on set was also well worth it... :fullofwin:

Bob Buxton, who's information is listed on the front page of this thread, handles a lot of this sort of stuff, if people we're interested i'd shoot him a message. I'm sure he's always looking for weird and different stuff to use. Obviously your stock silver honda civic is useless for this sort of shit as if they wanted that they could go to any rental agency and pay 30 bucks a day.

But if you have something different and modded I'm sure they might have a use for it somewhere, sometime. No harm in shooting him and email with a couple pictures and he can keep it on file in case.

If anyone is interested you can check out Season 1 Episode 4 of Lucifer as that is the one my car is involved in. I just watched the pilot episode myself, and the show actually looks pretty cool. It is on Fox though, so it will probably get cancelled.... :lawl:

What the hell man, spoilers!

J/k, good to hear it went well and they handled any issues promptly.

[E_Fahlman]

So I just watched the episode last night I noticed the Gold Honda Prelude with tbe Acrylic Hood that was really popular and did the DTP & Importfest shows like 5-10 years ago; also a flat black wrapped Infiniti FX35 with rims? Pretty sure that's owned by an RS Member

[The_AK]

^read above

[E_Fahlman]

Hahaha whoops just saw the above posts! Haha I'm a noob

[meme405]

Hah, yep episode aired monday night.

Yellow teg, and the impala are both local cars as well. Yellow teg is still owned by the guy that used to enter it in car shows ages ago. The thing is outrageous, owner even admits that it was built to play into that style and to win car shows. It has more TV's than most sports bars... lol

[extracrunchie]

Bring in the Tron and vinyl wrapped cars.

[white rocket]

Wife loves the show. Will be watching the newest episode tonight.

Glad it mostly worked out! Bob's a cool guy despite looking quite scary lol.
