Ryan Friedlinghaus Net Worth $20 Million

Ryan started West Coast Customs in 1993, borrowing $5,000 from his grandfather in order to start the business. Since then, he’s developed the company, establishing a reputation and making himself known for the unique customization and personal touch that is showcased in the work they do. The business started in Orange County and then moved into Los Angeles to expand its size and customer base. Eventually, more and more people were attracted to the growing company and it prompted MTV to offer them for a show which was eventually called “Pimp My Ride”. The show started in 2004 and became very popular, not only because of the customizations but also the personalities involved. Aside from Ryan, other employees who were featured on the show include the tire-specialist Alex, the electronics expert Mad Mike, the Paint Guys Buck, Luis, 2Shae, and many others. The show maintained itself for four seasons, but after the third season the manager of the shop called Q, decided not to be a part of the show anymore. It would be Friedlinghaus who would be heavily featured in the fourth season.

After moving to Corona, California, Ryan ended his contract with “Pimp My Ride”, and started to work on other shows, including “Inside West Coast Customs”, “Street Customs”, and “West Coast Customs” which were all produced by different television networks. Around 2010, they decided to make Burbank their headquarters and started to create franchises outside the country; they also started offering apparel and other merchandise. West Coast Customs now has branches in Japan, Dubai, Mexico, Berlin, Malaysia, and Russia with ongoing expansions to Australia and Canada. The company has become a multi-million dollar corporation and has boosted Ryan’s net worth significantly.

West Coast Customs has also been referenced and featured in video games such as “LA Rush”, and “Grand Theft Auto 5”. The company has attracted numerous celebrity customers such as Shaquille O’Neal and Chris Brown.

For his personal life, it is known that Friedlinghaus is married to Meagan Elliot but information and details about them are mostly kept private. He also has two children though no confirmation has been given on whether or not the children are from his current marriage or previous relationships.
