00:15From its slick green paint job to its eye catching rims, Corey Jones' car is causing
00:19a stir in his hometown of Chicago.
00:2100.04 COREY JONES I actually took a whole city and helped
00:24put them on the map for the car game.
00:2600.05 COMMERCIAL
00:27Corey has been building custom cars since 2008 and believes his green Camaro inspired
00:32others in the city.
00:34He first noticed the craze for big rims coming out of Florida, USA.
00:3800.06 COREY JONES I just kind of fed off of what was going
00:41on out there and wanted to bring it to my city.
00:4300.08 COMMERCIAL
00:44When it came to customizing his own car, Corey knew exactly what he wanted.
00:4800.14 COREY JONES I designed the whole car from top to bottom.
00:53I like big rims on cars.
00:56It was amazing to see a Camaro on 32 inch rims.
01:00Once I got a visual of the color I wanted to go, I went to my painter and we mixed up
01:04some paint until I got the color that I wanted and it came out better than I wanted.

01:10But Corey's Camaro is not just about big rims and a unique paint job.
01:14The interior of the car is also bespoke, including custom speakers and TV screens in the doors
01:19and dashboard.
01:21Even standard door handles are too ordinary for this car.
01:2400.36 COREY JONES These buttons here open the door, pop them
01:26open.
01:27It took them about a month and a half to paint it.
01:29It took them four days to do the interior and about three days to do the door panels.
01:36His Camaro, worth an estimated $95,000, was customized at the car shop where Corey and
01:42his friend Rico work.
01:4300.44 COREY JONES Corey's a perfectionist, you know, he wants
01:45his vehicle to look a certain way and that's what we're known for, that's what a lot of
01:49people know us for.
01:50It's unique, you know, there's nothing like it.
01:52A lot of people assume that, you know, you put big wheels on a car, it's always going
01:55to rub and that's not the case with this car.
01:57I'm used to it, so it performs as if I had the regular rims on there.
02:00Like, you've got to make sure that the job is done right, so I have no problem turning,
02:05I can do a full U-turn.
02:0600.50 COMMERCIAL Corey is constantly approached by people
02:09on the street and has won awards for his tricked out ride.
02:12Actually, I've won a lot of awards this year, pretty much every car show I went to this
02:17year.
02:18This is the most important trophy to me, because I've been going a lot of years and haven't
02:22took a trophy from there.
02:23And it was second place, domestic mild at the Chicago dub show.
02:31Camaro is the hottest car out, in my opinion.
02:35I just love her.
