Makoauto Meets a Legend: Showcasing Our DIY Frame at Sung Kang's DRIFTER Event

Iconic red AE86 custom drift car showcased at the Drifter movie promotional event by Sung Kang

If you know car culture, you know the name Sung Kang. As a legendary actor and a true automotive enthusiast who lives and breathes car builds, his influence on the community is unmatched.

On May 17th, the Makoauto team had the incredible opportunity to attend the promotional event for his upcoming film project, DRIFTER. Surrounded by insane builds, screaming engines, and the iconic red AE86 parked right up front, we knew we were in exactly the right place.

But we didn’t just show up to admire the cars—we brought something of our own to share.

Introducing Makoauto to a Car Culture Icon

When you create a product designed for car lovers, there is no better feeling than putting it in the hands of someone who truly understands the passion behind automotive customization.

We had the honor of meeting Sung Kang at his signing booth and introducing him to the Makoauto DIY License Plate Frame. Showing our custom DIY frame to a guy who has driven some of the most iconic cars in cinematic history was an absolute milestone for our brand.

Why Hardcore Car Guys Appreciate Our Frame

A lot of people see our frame and immediately fall in love with the fun, pop-in shoe charms. But presenting it at a hardcore car meet like the DRIFTER event proves something deeper: our frames are built for serious drivers.

Whether you are driving a daily commuter, a Tesla Model Y, or a custom drift car, the Makoauto frame solves real problems that car enthusiasts care about:

  • Rattle-Reducing TPU Design: Made from 0.35-inch thick flexible TPU, the frame helps cushion the plate and reduce vibration when installed correctly.

  • Paint Protection: Say goodbye to metal frames that scratch and rust. Our flexible TPU is designed to limit direct contact with painted surfaces when installed correctly.


  • Tamper-Resistant Hex Hardware: Every Makoauto kit comes with our stainless steel tamper-resistant hex screw set. Check screw tightness and charm fit regularly during normal road use.

    Express Your Vibe, No Matter What You Drive

    Car culture is all about expression. Some people build 1000-horsepower engines, some people lower their suspensions, and some want to add a unique, personal touch to their exterior.

    With the Makoauto clog-style frame, you have a rolling canvas. You can build a "STREET STYLE" vibe with hip-hop charms, spell out your crew's name, or keep it clean and minimal. It’s 100% up to you.

    A massive thank you to Sung Kang and the DRIFTER team for an unforgettable event. We are excited for the release and wish the film a huge box-office success. Keep drifting, keep building, and keep customizing.
