Gilbert Noriega had a rough life before the world of cars. Looking for a way out of that life and into a more positive scene, he started building his 1997 Acura Integra, which he says has put him on the right path. Building this car, with the help of his girlfriend, Sandra Chavez, along with his team, Street Envy, is his way to keep himself on a good path in life, as well as teaching younger kids to stay out of trouble and channel their energy into something positive.
