  • Garage Italia Customs strikes again with Hell’s Revenge Renegade

    Jeep Renegade Hell’s Revenge front viewGarage Italia Customs are those specialists who made shoes-inspired Alfa-Romeo 4C (link below) and basically surprised the world with this “creation”, which was rather strange. Well, it most certainly looked good. Now, their latest project is killing it with looks, too! Based on the latest edition of Jeep Renegade, it carries the name Hell’s Revenge and it will be making its premiere at the Harley-Davidson 25th European H.O.G. Rally. The latter is currently taking place in Portoroz, Slovenia, until Sunday.

    In short, Hell’s Revenge is passionate, expresses the ultimate freedom and calls for adventure. Values mutually shared by both brands. The show car pays homage to Harley owners and to all bikers who share the same lifestyle views.

    The Design Centre of Garage Italia Customs identified flames as the key element of the individualization to represent passion (the value in both the Jeep and Harley worlds). To make the idea come into reality, the experts had to add four layers of a matte paint base and then apply the fluorescent flames. All was eventually protected by a special transparent layer for fluo paint.

    The livery actually recalls the airbrushing technique, which we see sometimes on motorcycle tanks. The flames theme is continued on the interior via a painting of the dashboard. The seats had to come in black denim leather accentuated with Foglizzo Nappa.

    Besides the standard features, which one can find on a Renegade, here is included extra technical equipment. It adds the following: personalized skid plate, a suspension lift kit and special alloy rims combined with BF Goodrich tires. A very special feature is the two LED spotlights on the windscreen.

    Harley-Davidson 25th European H.O.G. Rally is free and open to all. The expected attendance is of thousands of Harley-Davidson riders, enthusiasts and fans. So make sure to be there if you are in the vicinity!

  • Alfa Romeo 4C inspired by Adidas Football Deadly Focus Pack is strangely charming

    Garage Italia Customs Alfa Romeo 4C front viewAlfa Romeo 4C is one of those stylish cars that can bear almost any kind of styling packages, tunings and modifications, isn’t it? This is probably because of its inherent Italian style. It does not even sound strange that the here-presented 4C is inspired by… shoes. Yes, shoes. But no others than Adidas’ Football Deadly Focus Pack.

    Although it sounds a little bit strange to design a car after footwear, we must admit that this project really catches the eye. It is an idea developed by the founder of Garage Italia Customs Lapo Elkann and the company Italia Independent, which is leader in the fashion industry. The result is fascinating: the animal-inspired wrap, which entirely copies the pattern that Adidas has used for the X15 and Ace 16 football shoes.

    If you are looking for anything else in this modification, you won’t find it. But still the 4C looks pretty intriguing and definitely draws the attention immediately. It also goes perfect with the Football Deadly Focus Pack. And just to remind you what it comes with it (as a standard), the 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C made its global and later market debut this year and amazed the public with its carbon-fiber infused chassis.

    The car rides on alloys measuring 17-inches and fitted with Pirelli P Zero AR rubbers. Under the hood, there is a turbocharged four-cylinder unit, which is capable of generating 237 hp (174 kW) and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft) of torque. The engine is connected to a twin-clutch transmission, thus helping the 4C sprint from 0 to 60 mph (92 km/h) in just 4.1 seconds. The top speed is positioned at 160 mph.

    After the debut of the coupe variant, Alfa Romeo introduced the 4C spider. Both are currently on sale.
