Jordan Shields has been a car enthusiast his entire life and has been attending car shows as a spectator for as long as he can remember. Since 2017, Shields has customized and built his own car, a 2010 Mitsubishi Evolution, and competed at local shows. "I started auto body refinishing school in November of 2018," mentions Shields, "and had the opportunity to bring in my own project to work on during my time there." He decided he wanted to bring his Evo in and work on a unique, one-of-a-kind build.
It's been a long road for Shields. "I started out the first few months working on it only at school, 4 hours a day," states Shields, "until later bringing it back home to work on it for longer (hours) in my tiny 1 car garage.
Previously, the car had a few aftermarket parts from older builds, and over the last 6 months Shields has transformed it with a custom carbon fiber and two-tone wide body. "90% of the entire build was done by myself," mentions Shields. Additionally, Ahns Customs helped with the final touch by wrapping the bottom-half of the two-tone in Avery Dennison Marble.
