2015-01-13
my name is Austin o krinsky I'm part owner of extreme offered performance out of katy texas basically we're a full automotive customizing shop our specialty is custom trucks you know we do all things cars trucks SUVs ATVs all that but our main specialty is big bad truck so basically you come in with a truck whatever make it maybe you have this idea of this modification you're interested in doing we help you do that so we make your you know your dream or your idea become a reality whether it's something you already know you want or something we help you design and build that's what we're about we're extreme and we build some of the wildest show trucks and vehicles on the market and you know in the show seen their daily drivers I have guys that bring them to like like parking garages and they have to park outside because the truck so big it won't fit in there you know there's really no limit its its limit its it's your imagination is you know we can take it as far as we can from very very basic to very very you know crazy and unique just depending on its all depends on what you want to do and your budget to do it for example someone comes in wants to build a full one of a kind show truck best of the best we do full custom suspension paintwork motor work interior car audio custom lighting and we just basically transform it from being a stock vehicle to something that looks nothing like anybody else has on the road you know we've done chevy truck for somebody before that's twin turbo and full built you know 427 you know ls7 motor and thousand plus horsepower on it you know in the united states trucks are very very prominent among all the manufacturers but more so down in the south in texas i mean everybody uses chucks for work or fun or you know going hunting or going to the ranch off-roading pulling their boat pulling trailers hauling the family around picking up stuff and you know they're just all so they're a big nice car to drive and people and you know enjoy having them and you know the things you can do to them are limitless really with how crazy you want to get with them especially in Texas from what we know i mean the truck scene is very very prominent just as much or more than any of the sports car scene i mean most most people that own us you know sports car also own a truck so most of them have a truck in everybody who wants to modify their car also wants to modify their truck the truck scene is it's kind of funny it's you know who's got the biggest and best stuff you see it more like the car shows that's where we see it the most you see guys with my truck is bigger and I've got the baddest paint job on it you know it's funny it's really competitive biggest brightest loudest you know everything's bigger in Texas the bigger the better it's fun to see everybody's look on their face you know when they see the vehicle for the first time or they get really excited they ask us a lot of questions and I think the best part is when you deliver a finished product to the customer and they're just blown away that's kind of what it's all about I mean you work so hard building these and creating this stuff every day it's very rewarding and you know very fun at the end of it to see it traveling to a show or see it to show up on a magazine cover you know see somebody's excitement when they find see the finished product of how excited they are to you know what they've create you know what we've helped them create what it's become it's it's real enjoyable some of these full full projects where we basically take a brand-new truck strip everything off of it you know powder coat and paint you know all the axles in the frame suspension do the paint jobs interior I mean they average Lee take two to three months to build working on them every single day there's just that much detail on that much you know that many parts and them from outside and in that you have to touch on them so it's just very time-consuming that was a truck that you know I built for me personally for the SEMA Show a few years ago and then an NFL player ended up buying it from us that he really liked it and he saw it on the cover magazine and he wanted it but I try to make everything unique in its own way like um you know all out of my big show cars you know similar to that one they have custom paint jobs and custom colors so i'll make a theme will do different color schemes or what have you in the artwork i always try to put something personal and they're like whether it's you know my initials or you know how now when there's one of my dogs airbrushed in there in the background just some some little personal piece incorporating it incorporated into it that makes it unique from you know what everyone else has and i can be like look this is something that's mine personal that i put in there it's a full kelderman air ride system it's fully automated probe press of a button you can go from a six-inch live to a 10-inch lift to a 14 inch lift it's got three settings on there it's one of the top of the line suspensions on the market right now a lot of guys like it because you press that button and drop down the lift and you can actually park it in your garage that kind of stuff it's it's convenient and at the same time you can show off whenever you want to you know we've done a full paint job it's got the road armor front and rear bumpers it's got our bp's grill on there you know we've done all the interior it's got Rockford Fosgate sound system in there and then we've got of course you know the bigger wheels and tires 40 inch toyo open country mud terrain tires and it's got the fuel off road wheels on there in there I think they're 22 by 14 so it's pretty wide wheel and tire combination to which gives it that aggressive stance so the white and pink jeep we you know we went to SEMA last year we saw a couple different people doing some white and pink themes and you know we said you know we need to do something like that and just kind of put our own touch on it Austin decided he wants to build something nice for his wife and that thing has been a real eye-catcher you know it stops everybody's wife it stops our customers it stops you know everybody because they look at it and you see a white and pink jeep you're like what is this man it's the Barbie mobile you know but it's fully decked out I mean I I I wouldn't mind driving it every day you know it's even though it's got the pink on there it's it's it's a really nice Jeep for all the suspension and the work that we put into it I mean it's it's very well rounded and good built its got like a bedazzled box in there it's got the two kicker Wolfers in there and like the full interior we did like some nice leather kit and we hydro dipped all the panels in like a pink zebra we also did that under the hood it's you know it's a little flashy but I mean that's what we did we built it you know to break next to stop people and they hey what is that I've never seen something like that before so I think it does the job yeah I mean we've made so many crazy ones but you know one of my favorites I always try to outdo myself each time you know the ones that I personally do for myself and like I said a lot of times they're always built for the SEMA Show or for a magazine or something like that I try to you know do something different every time but get better and better at it and use newer newer stuff each time for example one of the ones I did last year for the SEMA Show was a Dodge that I built 2500 and it was on a 16 inch lift and it was all Lamborghini orange underneath and crazy you know clown paint job on the side and full interior custom sound system and it was one of the most most time-consuming detail builds that we've ever done in it I mean it that truck the popularity and the exposure that trucks gotten is just unreal i mean it's every day it's popping up on something I mean it's just I spent a lot of time and a lot of attention to detail you know making sure every aspect of the thing was just perfect and you know every everything on it had detail touched on it and you know that's that's the end result is just to make it something that everybody is just crazy about at the end of the day
