SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) of the automobile aftermarket industry was held on November 3 to 6, 2015.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Another year has come with SEMA hosting one of the largest conventions of any type (next to Consumer Electronic Show) to be held in at the Las Vegas Convention Center, Nevada. \u00a0All branches of the automobile aftermarket companies were present from paint, tools, tires, performance parts as well as the large\u00a0auto companies like Ford, Toyota, Mazda, and Dodge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This year had also seen the emergence of\u00a0some popular Japanese custom builders showcase a multitude of builds by popular Kei Miura of Rockey Bunny, Alira Nakai of RWB (RAUH-Wel Begriff), and the charasmatic “Kato-San” of Liberty Walk. \u00a0One particular Nissan GTR (see image below) made it all the way from Japan to show off its engraved Kuhl Racing bodykit that previously was recognized early in the year at the Tokyo Auto Salon.<\/p>\n

The many attendees from around the globe were not disappointed with the great weather SEMA had this year making it easy to appreciate vendors and display vehicles of all makes both indoors and out. \u00a0Whichever corner you turned, there was a vendor or display vehicle for you to look at. \u00a0It’s a<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One major difference\u00a0in this year’s SEMA Show was the moving of SEMA Ignited across the street immediately after the SEMA “roll-out” Cruise\/Parade. \u00a0This gave your average fan the opportunity to see some of these amazing SEMA car builds up close and personal versus a documentary to watch on TV. \u00a0If you’re a car enthusiast but not a member of the auto industry to attend SEMA, we encourage you to experience SEMA Ignited which happens on the last day (Friday) after SEMA where most of the cars at the convention display their cars like a car meet\/gathering for the public to see.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We look forward to attending next year’s event to discover the latest and greatest in the automotive aftermarket culture, and we hope we can share those experiences with you as always.<\/p>\n
