The 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon was full of Hybrids and K Cars but as many as there was, we always have our Helluva Rides Favorites.

This second Gen. Honda FIT Hybrid caught our eyes and this FIT was fitting right in at the 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon. This wasn’t just your normal build that you see all the time. The paint job is what set this JAZZ off, It looked like it was bare metal with a sanded graphic finnish that was braided, this unique paint job was done by ARTIS and these guys had some other crazy paint jobs on each of there cars that amazed the crowd. We tried to talk to them and lucky they had some build photos available and you would be amazed on the detail work that goes into there work.

Artis had all sorts of crazy paint styles and designs. Like this demo hood. Notice
how shiny this black is. We think they said it was some kind of reflective black chrome





This one was also sick. you have to really look at the detail that went into this paint. Diamond plating, with diamonds that was all done by tape.



This one was an Audi they had on display. Same concept as the Diamond plating but done
with black and it had all the groves, again done with tape and a crap load of primer. It had the effect of a hand bag.
