Every December, the garage feels a little different.
The air gets colder, the days get shorter, and builds slow down just enough for people to add a bit more personality to their cars. Instead of chasing lap times or dyno numbers, it becomes about atmosphere. Lights, decorations, late-night drives, and small upgrades that make the car feel special for the season.
That’s exactly what we saw during our December Community Builds event, themed around “Xmas Build Sharing.” We invited everyone to show off their Christmas-themed rides and share which Maxpeedingrods parts were on their wishlist. What came back wasn’t just mod photos. It was warmth, creativity, and a lot of genuine car culture moments.
@dilllpikl turned his IS300 into a rolling Christmas display, adding colorful string lights, snowflake decals, and even stacking wrapped presents on the roof.
His caption said it all: “Hopefully @maxpeedingrods left me some new coil-overs under the tree.”
It felt playful and honest. Just a car enthusiast hoping Santa upgrades his suspension this year.
Others kept things simple and real.
@the_cheep_jeep_ shared a quiet winter scene. Her vehicle parked roadside, covered in thick snow, with a note that the Maxpeedingrods coilovers were still performing perfectly despite the cold and harsh conditions. Sometimes that’s the best kind of review.
Then there were the eye-catching night shots.
@idaho_crx drove through town with his car wrapped in Christmas lights, turning an ordinary street into something straight out of a holiday movie. It was impossible to miss and perfectly captured what this season is about. Having fun with your build and sharing it with others.
That mix of creativity, function, and personality is exactly why Community Builds exists. It’s not about perfect photos or big budgets. It’s about how you use your car and the stories behind it.
Looking back at 2025, we’re honestly grateful. Month after month, so many of you joined our social campaigns, shared your projects, and trusted our parts on your builds.
And we’re just getting started!
In 2026, we’re planning bigger events, more creative formats, and even better rewards. If you enjoy showing your ride and connecting with other enthusiasts, keep an eye on our Instagram @maxpeedingrod
