Beginners VIPStyle kit :) +

Ok got my VIPStyle beginners kit today :)

Took some quick photos and edits So hard to photograph now. You have no idea how hard it is to edit! However I can honestly say there is some wow factor in the before and after photos in my opinion.

The knot is soooooo black it's not even worth posting photos.

Yeah they are not quite as Baller as some of the complete fabric re-dos I have seen. But they are the best "covers" in the market under $500 hands down! I would have gotten the non suede one but I got a deal I could not refuse :)

But tint 1st. I just don't see my car with curtains. Too many curves and it's a daily driven. I would constantly be opening and closing them whenever I parked outside. I also just think they will not look right.

Well it cost "ME" a special price. Since my car is well known in the scion scene the exposure for the guy that did it would be good. So my price was diff. than others would be :)

So that price + add about $370 total for all the Garson/JP additions. Garson Neck Pads x2, JP KUROTUNA knot & Fusa and DAD air freshener :)

If you wanted to do the same kind of look on the pillars/headliner it would prob. run you for leather vinyl $600 depending on the material and labor (stitching). FOr a higher end car like a Luexus/INFINITI I would assume real leather so the cost could go up to 2k easy.

Thanks :) I mean considering my car is under 20k :) I had to do what I could with it to at least feel like I was in a more expensive car. My friend told me tonight, he has no real modding knowledge, that as a passenger my interior looks just awesome and is extremely comfortable to ride in. That is why I did it.

Of course winning some better trophies at shows is nice as well.

lol yeah I am definitely exited to install it Sunday. I will also be installing the full Poly lip kit I got from Kenstyle. None many have this kit and since Kenstyle might go under it will be even more rare if that happens. Dropped and with this kit my car will be an instant eyesore. Glad I did this in the begining of hte show season.

Anyhow if I am gonna do Air I gotta do it right the first time. I jsut did not feel that the other cheaper kits would give me that "daily" quality I was looking for. Plus I jsut had the dam $$ for it hehe.

I have NO IDEA :) I do not need the same kind of parts as the higher end cars like Lexus/Infiniti. It's a Scion xA/ Toyota iSt. Very light car (micro) car actually.

I have been dialy riding it about 2.5" below stock for a while now but only mod has been springs. Nothing else but a rear sway and front strut bars. ACC sells the AirRunner "kit" for my car. Only upgrades I know of are $1,500 + but I do not beleive they actually "upgrade" the suspension just the air system.
