Team LoveHATE x FMAA eWaste Benefit

Saturday the 10^th we came out to help support our friends over at the Filipino Martial Arts Academy promote their eWaste benefit at their school in Natomas, California. The weather was pretty nice that day when we rolled in and a huge container was full of electronics all to help the non-profit organization, Eskrimador Samahan, an organization that helps kids learn the Filipino style of martial arts. The money raised will go toward the school and allow them to buy supplies and equipment needed to keep the school running.

We believe that fulfilling the needs of our youth in anyway to help them better themselves and build solid morals and sense of responsibility which will prepare them for big life decisions in the future is worth our time. 

The smell of BBQ and food set the tone for a nice relaxing afternoon. We backed up the G35 partially into the school and popped the trunk and fired up the Kinect sponsored and installed by Al & Ed's Autosound E. Pasadena for the kids to play Fruit Ninja. We enjoyed some throwing around the football, playing basketball and the company of our friends. I hope that we can come out again for their next event and share another afternoon while helping raise money for the school. Here are some pictures from the event and if you are interested in having you child or even you in learning Eskrima and you live in the area click here.

Team LoveHATE invades SEMA 2011

All we’ve been talking about and why the site and Facebook has been quiet has been SEMA. What is SEMA? Well, this is how their semashow.com defines it…

“The SEMA Show is the premier automotive specialty products trade event in the world. It draws the industry’s brightest minds and hottest products to one place, the Las Vegas Convention Center. In addition, the SEMA Show provides attendees with educational seminars, product demonstrations, special events, networking opportunities and more.

SEMA Show 2010 drew more than 50,000 domestic and international buyers. The displays are segmented into 12 sections, and a New Products Showcase featured nearly 1,500 newly introduced parts, tools and components. In addition, the SEMA Show provides attendees with educational seminars, product demonstrations, special events, networking opportunities and more…”

So in short, SEMA is a four day long INTERNATIONAL event in Vegas with over a hundred thousand people, thousands of distributors, guests in the automotive, racing industry and the best of the best cars from around the world. It’s like ComicCon for fanboys, E3 for gamers, AnimeExpo for Otaku.

Kinda impressive huh?

Team LoveHATE is honored to be selected to have a featured vehicle with full sponsorship provided by JDMSport to represent our unique style of American Itasha as well as be the first Itasha styled vehicle to grace the floors of SEMA. We hope our newest design will please all of our Otaku fans out there and the canvas for the design pleases all of our gearhead / car enthusiast fans. It is probably every car clubs dream to eventually make it to SEMA so for us to get there in two years means a lot to all of us.

So I’d like to thank our sponsors, Steve Crain with Signs by Tomorrow for his amazing vinyl work, Lee Ho with JDMSport for getting us in front of the world and putting us into SEMA, Shawn with Arden Custom Interiors for the amazing custom interior, Alex with Rodoni Motorsport for his fender rolling skills, Tim and Roland for putting VuQo Premium Vodka in front of us, and finally all of Team LoveHATE for equally helping out with our SEMA project. Hope to see some of you up there!!! This will be our last article until we return.
