Not my car but I have the same kit.
Sorry but not in my opinion, sporty wheels with 'meh' fitment and a sporty kit is all i see. Its likely fast and functional though... the exact opposite of what we do here :biggthumpup:
A kit wont make you vip. The car will. The one you posted is a VIP car styled accordingly.
i dont see why it wouldn't be. but i'll leave it to you gurus... haha.
not a great example of vip in my personal opinion, but could pass none the less. if you have it you obviously like it so f**k the label.
I've been reading and researching VIP style but guess I'm still a newb. I thought VIP was: Platform-Suspension-wheels(low offset)-bodykit.......:shrug:
you're looking at it all wrong. a vip car is just a vip car. it [I]may[/I] be a certain platform and have certain characteristics/parts but the whole is greater than the parts. there is no formula or rules. just build something that [I]educated[/I] people see and say "that s**t is vip", or even better: "that's a sick car". labels are bandwagon bumper stickers.

I'd say this is more sportier. Possibly a different kit will put you in the right direction. But yah... forget labels, build what you want and we'll call it how we see it (but that dont matter).
mesh wheels are awesome(more exe/sporty look) but if executed right, you can pull it off easy as. i reckon just add spacers to get it closer to the fenders and im sure you will get better feedback:)

I would say it need fitment help but sure, its way more sportier then most too
i wouldnt label it vip. its a clean car. even though i wouldnt label it vip, others would say it passes for one. so many opinions these days and so many ppl doing everything and calling it vip.

[QUOTE=airmax;328075]i wouldnt label it vip. its a clean car. even though i wouldnt label it vip, others would say it passes for one. so many opinions these days and so many ppl doing everything and calling it vip.[/QUOTE] this. the style has changed drastically in the last 3 - 4 years, it's kinda crazy. stuff that used to get bashed on for being too sporty even as recently as a year ago is being implemented in a lot of builds now. times change i guess :shrug:
as stated above, i think the fitment can use a little improvment but nonetheless it's vip
