Well at first the IS was going to be the project car, so I bought the 05 XB as a daily and family car. Five years later the box is the project, the IS is the daily. My wife liked the box so much then when we had a baby, we got the new 2gen XB. So now I have three projects going on at the same time. Focus on motor and stance on the IS for now, redoing my interior on the 1gen for next season and a more aggressive stance and fitment. The 2gen well it had a good start from the factory with a DAMD lip kit, center mounted exhaust, an lowered. So I'm working on interior, wheels and fitment for now. But we all know it's a never ending thing. Lol

I wish you had the proper platform... I'm not saying u have to have an actual VIP platform, cuz even the older heads say is ok not to, what I'm sayin is that it looks good overall, maybe a tad too busy in the interior... I just feel like if you're going to have tables and stuff in the back, it should be on larger car where ppl actually have room to enjoy ur custom amenities nd not in compact car... basically make the mods serve a purpose... Also the embroidery in red stitching behind the front seats? What does it say? Regardless... I thnk u should've chosen a more "luxury" type lettering and a color to go with ur seats and panels (or the same color) since they're custom... makes sense? I'm not knocking it at all man... but if you had an LS with these mods I know it'd be real nice... this one's nice too tho. GL.

I agree with a lot of the things you mention, but it's also one of the reason why I choice and XB. it's easy to take a big body luxury car and go VIP, but it take a little more work to take and non-traditional luxury car and make it be luxury, or turn it VIP style. Not to mention taking a car that is not liked by many. I don’t know if you have ever been inside of a first gen xb but it has a lot of room. The interior lends its self to have as many tables without making it uncomfortable but also functional for the passengers. Following the true spirit of the Japanese VIP culture, I custom made the 3 tables in the back, which also light up; I did this 4 year ago, and now you see it everywhere in Tokyo auto salon, the annual VIP shows that take place all over Japan the last two years. All the mods in my car serve a purpose and are done in a very clean matter. Regarding the red stitching, it was to match the interior floor lighting which is red. Luxury lettering, Aimgain, Sessions among a few for example have red stitching and does this make them any less luxury then Junction Produce, Garson, Bellezza? I might pick up and LS for a future project, but at the moment I’m working on my IS and a new Gen xb for the wife to daily roll on.
