Readers Rides: Austin Mardian’s Subaru STI

Austin Mardian, one of our awesome readers submitted his ride to us to showcase the work that he’s done on his whip and what better way to do that then to get it in to us?

Austin has had the car for just over 2 years and through the ups and downs that he’s been through with the car, he’s still managed to make it look dope. His problem was trying to get enough funds to make it look good, but instead always ended up dumping money into other little things. This made him into more of a performance guy and just never really got into the looks department as much.

The good thing about Austin is that he still had an eclectic appreciation for other things like fitment and aesthetics. Power wasn’t always on his mind. After hanging with his friends that were well into the fitment game, he decided that it was his time. Within a week, Austin was able to do it all – fenders, suspension, wheels and proper sizing. There was no way he was going to do it half-assed and if he was going to get it done, it was going to be done right.

Austin says that it might not be the most baller or flashiest Subie out there, but for what he’s done I think we can all say that we can appreciate his work. It looks damn good to us.

Anniversary Decals for Charity

As you may know based on the post before this. illmotion is officially one year old! To continue on the tradition of releasing special decals for special occasions we have something new to show you.(See below)

Since we get so much love and support from all over the world, we thought what better way then to spread that love and support to those in need. For these special decals, we will be donating 100% of the proceeds to a charity which isn’t as commonly known, the National Pancreatic Cancer Canada Foundation.

A little bit about Pancreatic Cancer:
Every 15 minutes in North America, someone is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It is the 4th largest cause of cancer death and the most lethal.
Pancreatic cancer is the only one of the top ten cancer killers with a five-year survival rate still in the single digits—and the survival rate hasn’t changed in nearly 3 decades.
There is no prevention, no early detection method, no proven treatment unless diagnosed at an early stage and no cure. In 2011, it is predicted that more than 250,000 people worldwide will be diagnosed with this horrific disease and the numbers will continue to rise unlike other leading cancers where an investment in early detection has led to a decrease in cancer incidences.

First off we have a ‘Black Label’ special. Terence Ng of Black Label Designs has sponsored these decals to help out the cause.

And for the second anniversary decals we have our iM OG teal outlined all white decals.

To add to our 2 special ‘anniversary’ decals, we have 5 ‘Mystery Packs’ which contain 5 previously made and custom, never seen before, decals. As always a set of decals will cost you $8, and for the ‘Mystery Packs’ it will be $25. And once again all proceeds will go to the, National Pancreatic Cancer Canada Foundation

So head on over to the STORE and get your hands on some illmotion swag and help us help others live a life they deserve!

One Year @ illmotion

It’s been one hell of a year for us here at illmotion, but with the support of other local brands here in Calgary and the love we’ve received from you guys, it’s only right we give that same love and support back.

First off we’d like to give a shout out to Van Bui for the design of our sick logo. Whether it’s on our cars, snowboards, laptops, apparel etc. it’s because of Van’s creativity that our logo has gotten the recognition it has over the past year. Thanks Van!

Another person who has played a major role in helping us get to where we are today is Terence Ng of Black Label Designs. It’s because of Terence that we can bring you our decals as quickly as possible. And with superior quality and materials from Black Label, we definitely gotta give it up for Terence!

This past year we were able to bring you guys our very first t-shirt with the slogan we live by: Made You Look. This wouldn’t have been possible without the creative minds of Calvin Lee and Addison Chanthyvong of FCSWDT clothing. These dudes definitely helped us out in getting illmotion out there as a brand. Don’t forget to check out their clothing line as well!

Last but certainly not least, we gotta give a huge shout out to none other than you guys, the fans! It’s because of your love and support that we are where we are today. This past year has been very surreal and we could not have done it without you guys. Thank you for all the support you’ve given us, and the charities that we love to give back to. In 2010, we were able to raise and give over $3000 to The Alberta Children’s Hospital, MADD Canada, and The Alberta Breast Cancer Foundation. This year, we are on a goal to hit and surpass last year’s accomplishment and donate to many other charities such as Pancreatic Cancer Canada and SEVA.

As we look back at the past year that was illmotion, there’s definitely no stopping what we started. The next season is definitely something we’re all looking forward to and can’t wait to get out and bring you that heat we’re known to serve. Stay tuned!
