    Hey all! I just had to check out West Coast Custom's Rolls Royce kit car that they made for Justin Bieber. I love kit-cars and when consumers take design into their own hands and make their vehicles an expression of themselves, even sometimes improving on the great work of the designers, and I wish more people had the resources to do so! What do you think of the Uriel?

      I think you have not been true and open about your real perspective ans thoughts about this car... The concept is very beautiful... Just the design language of the lines going through out the car and front shape is where the design is lacking... I love the futuristic with unique aspect and elements of this car.. great work

      It does look like a mobile neobrutal parlor, instead of an anonymous mass-market vehicle made sometime after 1999. Most successful is the wheel skirting incorporated into the profile, avoiding the deep incisions behind from the concept.

    i like the style but the way the wheels stick out doesn't look good at all to me it reminds me of something homemade like someone tried to make a replica of the irobot audi i like the style but i don't love this, i feel if they flattened the side completely making the wheels flush so it's just a flat side with no indication of where the wheels even are then it could would
    i also think the trunk is extremely weird on this design everything is flat everywhere but then theres an eggshaped trunk that almost bulges out so curved it is it just looks out of place

      I Get that feeling too, not trying to bash Justin's style, It has a certain merit, but this car looks like strings at the circus to make the performers fly. If Rolls couldn't make the proto a reality this is a far cry facsimile. Should have started over with a custom chassis and called it "JB" instead of "RR", feel bad for Justin his CTS-V turned out nicer IMO and he has to like this thing because he paid for it. Justin just make your street aluminum (pop cans are cheap) and have them build an AC magnetic car that actually floats.

    This vehicle definitely shows how important the fundamentals of car design are. With a few tweaks and it would look much better. One of the big problems is just most lines seem random, they don't match together, they are just "there". You pointed out several of them, like those side lines on the rear panel, the rear lights are completely disconnected from the rest of the design and others, like the front has again some diagonal lines that don't match with the overall squareness of the front, plus the bottom part is incredible flat, while the top has some arch to it, which again causes disconnection between the elements.

This WCC design is truly unpleasant, just, ghastly. The front-end is so...*flat*...and frumpy, and Frank is showing these clowns an enormous amount of professional courtesy in his critique because, I think, he wants to pump up the thinkers and makers in this modern “coach-builder” niche - the niche itself is a very cool yet undeveloped market, because the cost is so damn high.

    Hey Frank, major fan of the Channel and the opportunity to watch someone of your magnitude in the Car Design space giving honest, unfiltered opinions. And while we do share your fascination with this kind of "no holds barred" creations (be it the real World ones or the virtual kind) we do wonder what´s your opinion about what is probaby the exact opposite: Race Car Design. When Aerodynamics, efficiency and a (often thick) rulebook dictate the final product do you lose interest because of the constraints and lack of ability to let the imagination and pencil run free, or do you think there´s beauty in the ultimate quest for speed/cornering speed?
    The focus of our Channel in this regard goes even a bit further we think, as we feature mainly Road based highly modifed Hillclimb Cars, which tend to be transformed into these very divisive monstrosities full of wings, canards, enlarged bodykits and whatnot. Do you think at that point a purist designer´s interest just fades considerably or there´s still an interest and a way to make those type of cars remarkable when it comes to looks and the emotion they can invoke on the public??

      Really good question and as a designer too I view race car design as the pinnacle. I’ve been lucky enough to work on many and love the balance but ultimately am drawn to the true form follows function aspect. The most beautiful car is the fastest as a race engineer once said to me. I believe there is space for designers to ‘beautify’ race tech but only to a certain point, beyond that it becomes styling which is where automotive design for road cars has brought us today. By the way hello Frank, how are you?

      Thanks for the view and comments! Race car design is, for me, the best kind of design! Efficient design can’t be anything other than beautiful and getting a stylist involved will only ruin the purity of a race car’s character. Real designers know that designing for performance guarantees beautiful aesthetics. Lousy designers will only screw it up by trying too hard to give it a “look” other than its own honest appearance. Not every bird needs to look the same and not every race car needs to look the same, different enough solutions exist to keep the design and engineering always a challenge to innovate.

    Question:
    1. Given how low the car is wouldn’t it end up scraping on the road if he’s coming down a slope an onto some flat road?
    2. What’s gonna happen if he hits speed bump too fast? Or any speed bump? It looks like it would scrape against the front bumper
    3. Given how wide the car is and how the wheel covers stick out wouldn’t he possibly be in the way if he parked on a curb
    I’m assuming the wheel covers can be removed, cause if not he can’t change a flat tire, or air his tires up
    Not to mention the car is so low that if he encounters any debris on the road he’s gonna have to the drive around or else it could damage the car

    This car and it's design along with Franks critique of it displays the difference between "trained" designers and artists and crafts people. When one goes to school for art or design they are exposed to and put through a very rigorous process that serves to inform them on what is good decision making and what isn't. As important, one also learns a kind of language used to articulate a design or a work of piece of art as well as construct a dialogue about its success or meaning. Although I don't think the car is total loss the design doesn't achieve a higher level of success simply because the people involved simply don't have the education to make better design choices and decisions.

  • @Postal268

    I like it, not as much as the concept it was based off but that's cause I didn't like the car to start with. The original car just looked like a rounded dodge charger with an uglier grill and hood ornament.
    I'm really into cyberpunk kinda vibes (thought it was cool you referenced some of the car designs from the cyberpunk game) I've been modding my own car to look cyberpunk, but I started with a car that was already a good fit for the style, a 1990 Honda CRX. I've been trying to figure out my own asymmetrical mods to change the front but so far I've only got two different headlights (one side stock, one side aftermarket projectors with a halo light ring) but I'm trying to learn how to fab body kit sort of things and I'd love to play around with the grill being half the size and off to the side cause I have a half sized radiator off to the side anyways. Cool thing is the car only came from the factory with driver side mirror so it already had a small bit of asymmetry, even if only slight.
    Most my current mods have been limited to lighting, I've added LED strips to the tops of the headlights to outline and accent, underglow, interior leds to light up the floors, light up trim accent on the dash, extra screens/gauges/small bit of out in the open wiring where it would look cool, a led neon looking flexible light bar that outlines the area behind the seats, and color changing led spot lights to the gauge cluster. The only body things I've changed is I added a carbon fiber hood with a front center vent this month but that changed the look of the front a lot. I do want to add rear wheel skirts, but I don't want it to be smooth and flush. I want to have it sink in just a hair and be black. The car is "mostly" white, doors are currently blue and front bumper is red cause junk yard parts, paint job comes last lol but the black will make a nice contrast and I feel it won't look as shocking since it will still look like a wheel well but also be covered. Figured it would look cool too to have a stencil spray paint styled cyberpunkish jolly rodger on each skirt.

    I'm not a designer. I am an artist but I'd simplify the side details lines as you pointed out. More defined head lights and the number plate recesse.
    I love brutalist vibes so I'd go for more of a turret bunker roof line like the Lagonda 1975 1st clay model vibe shutters to hide headlights.

Though I don't like the design as much as he probably does, I can really appreciate the craftsmanship from the designers' perspectives and that JB has made an existing car suite his individual taste.

Completely agree on giving it more wild exhaust tips. Could have picked a Fighter Jet where Rolls-Royce provide the engine and use that for the design inspiration while having an interesting story tie-in.

    I like your comments about stretching creativity and imagination, especially in a car world, that lacks varied forms and colours. Essentially to-day's designs betray a conservative fear of standing out, as it may not be safe, in the rather aimless, chaotic society in which we find ourselves. In the fifties/sixties the western world felt safe after the end of the wars and a new generation was restless to explode with creativity. I used to love looking at all the wild custom cars, when I was young. I also like your reference to architectural design for cars, a complete change from what we've always thought about car design. Maybe architecture would give more feeling of strength and security in this "wobbly" time.
