GTA 6 Vehicle Customization: Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's Explained

GTA 6 will let Jason and Lucia trick out their rides at dedicated mod shops, and Rockstar has already put two of them on the map: Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's. Both were confirmed in June 2026 as part of the GTA 6 Ultimate Edition reveal, and together they signal how central car culture is going to be in Leonida.

Essentials:

• Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's are the two vehicle mod shops Rockstar has named for GTA 6 so far.
• Both currently ship as exclusive content in the $99.99 Ultimate Edition, alongside three other locked storefronts.
• Rideout Customs leans into street and donk style: lifted sedans, oversized rims, loud paint.
• One-Eyed Willie's, based around Lake Leonida, specializes in off-road builds and hand-painted finishes.
• Rockstar has not detailed the full customization system (part lists, pricing, how shops unlock) beyond what ships in the Ultimate Edition.

What Rockstar has actually confirmed about GTA 6 car customization

Most of what's public comes from the GTA 6 Ultimate Edition announcement that ran alongside the game's pricing reveal ($79.99 Standard, $99.99 Ultimate) in June 2026. That page is the first time Rockstar named specific mod shops by name rather than just showing customized cars in trailer B-roll. Earlier trailers had already teased the culture around it: donk-style sedans with towering chrome wheels, lowered lowriders bouncing on hydraulics, and hand-painted murals on truck panels all appeared in Vice City street scenes long before any shop had a name attached.

What's still missing is the mechanical detail. Rockstar hasn't said what a full parts catalog looks like, how much a respray or a suspension swap will cost in-game, or whether every mod shop in Leonida works the same way as Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's. Treat anything beyond the two named shops and their Ultimate Edition contents as an expectation based on past Rockstar games, not a confirmed feature.

Rideout Customs: GTA 6's home for donk and street style

Rideout Customs is built around the donk scene: older American sedans lifted on absurdly oversized rims, a look that's genuinely rooted in Florida car culture rather than invented for the game. The shop's Ultimate Edition offering includes unique rims and interior trim options meant to make a car stand out in traffic, plus paint wraps and suspension work.

Ultimate Edition owners also get exclusive Vapid Ganado Retro Build mods and the '67 Vapid Dominator Buggy with its own Paradise Garage, both framed as the kind of build a Rideout Customs regular would show off. Rockstar hasn't confirmed Rideout Customs' exact location yet, but everything shown so far ties it to Vice City's street scene rather than the rural stretches of the map.

One-Eyed Willie's: off-road builds and one-of-a-kind paint jobs

One-Eyed Willie's is the second confirmed mod shop, and it points the opposite direction from Rideout Customs: off-road parts and hand-painted, one-of-a-kind liveries rather than chrome and hydraulics. Rockstar places it around Lake Leonida, the swampy inland stretch of the state that's shown up repeatedly in trailer footage away from the coastline.

The Ultimate Edition bundles both shops together with a wider set of exclusive extras: the '95 Grotti Cheetah, a Dinka Enduro motorcycle with a Crest Kayak, Hawk & Little Morgan revolvers, personalized weapon variants, and a set of Classic Car Collection missions. Rockstar hasn't broken down which specific vehicles or missions belong to which shop, so treat the pairing as a bundle rather than a one-to-one match.

Where to find the mod shops in Leonida

Shop	Style	Known location
Rideout Customs	Street and donk: lifted sedans, big rims, loud paint	Not yet pinpointed; tied to Vice City's street scene
One-Eyed Willie's	Off-road builds and hand-painted liveries	Lake Leonida area

Are the mod shops locked behind the Ultimate Edition?

For now, yes. Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's ship as part of the $99.99 Ultimate Edition alongside three other exclusive storefronts: Stock 305 (streetwear), Sara's Unisex Salon (haircuts, makeup and nail work), and Electric Fang Tattoo (over 50 designs from art collective FAILE). None of that content unlocks all at once. Rockstar has said Ultimate Edition extras are tied to story chapters, so even players who buy the upgrade will see the shops open up gradually as Jason and Lucia's campaign progresses. See our full Standard, Ultimate or Collector breakdown for how the editions compare beyond customization.

Some outlets have pushed back on that structure, pointing out that donk and lowrider styling, streetwear, and tattoos are exactly the kind of car- and street-culture content that's historically defined GTA's identity, and putting it behind a $20 upsell on top of the base game reads differently than locking away a cosmetic skin. It's a fair critique to keep in mind before deciding which edition to buy, since a Standard Edition purchase currently means no access to either mod shop at launch.

What other customization options can you expect?

Beyond the two Ultimate Edition shops, Rockstar hasn't detailed a base-game customization system yet. Based on GTA 5 and GTA Online's Los Santos Customs and Benny's Original Motor Works, here's what's reasonable to expect at ordinary mod shops across Leonida:

• Paint, wraps and custom liveries
• Rims, tires and ride height
• Body kits, spoilers and bumpers
• Window tint
• Engine, brakes, transmission and turbo upgrades
• Suspension, including hydraulics for lowrider builds
• Interior trim and dashboard details
• Custom license plates

None of this is confirmed for GTA 6 specifically. It's the baseline the series has built up over three console generations, and the Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's reveals suggest Rockstar is at least matching that depth, not cutting it back.

Why the shop split matters for Leonida's identity

Splitting customization across two culturally distinct shops instead of one generic garage is a bigger tell than it looks. GTA 5 eventually built out Los Santos Customs and Benny's as separate spaces, but that took years of GTA Online updates to arrive at. Rockstar naming two thematically opposed shops, donk and street on one side, swamp and off-road on the other, before GTA 6 has even launched suggests customization is being treated as a core part of Leonida's regional identity from day one, not an afterthought bolted on post-launch.

GTA 6 mod shops vs. Los Santos Customs

GTA Online players will recognize the split: Los Santos Customs handled everyday paint and performance work, while Benny's Original Motor Works specialized in lowriders with hydraulics and one-off custom builds. Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's look like a similar division of labor for Leonida, just organized around street/donk culture on one side and off-road/hand-painted work on the other, with Florida's car scene standing in for the lowrider culture Benny's leaned on in Los Santos.

The bottom line

Rockstar has confirmed exactly two named mod shops for GTA 6 so far, Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie's, and both are currently locked to the $99.99 Ultimate Edition alongside three other exclusive storefronts. Everything else about how vehicle customization will actually work at launch, including whether Standard Edition players get any dedicated mod shop at all, is still unconfirmed.
