The Kustom Life Magazine deals with the traditional customizing of vintage vehicles ( automobiles and motorcycles ) and the lifestyle associated with them. Vehicles and workshops are presented in detail and events taking place around the world are presented in travel reports. The fact that Custom is written with a K in the name of the magazine has a historical background that goes back to the Barris brothers .

reception
“If new gazettes enrich the magazine market, Dock66 should not be missing. So there is no question that we were at the release party of the Kustom Life magazine , which has just appeared for the first time , which went up both in the Stay Gold Shop and in our own club in Wuppertal. The magazine makers made a successful debut with three live bands, plenty of cool bikes and the first edition of Kustom Life Magazine to leaf through. "
