VIP style first gen's...?

i know our cars arent VIP style platforms but a lot of you have very nice setups..stance, cleanliness, rims..etc etc...i really like the VIP look. im not a performance guy at all...i think its awesome...but i would rather drive low and slow and have people see why your car is dope..lol...i get that a lot anyway..we all do...first gen CLs that are done up and done right are hard to come by.

imma lurker at the vip style boards and ive seen some acura's (mainly tl's and rl's) and even some honda's (obviously accords). how do you guys feel about a VIP'd out first gen. anyone on here ever think of going that route?..what does it take to be considered a VIP car or VIP style car. besides having a big body 4 door, honda odyssey, etc.

It's usually reserved for 4 doors, but a few people on here have gone that route. When I think VIP, I think wide body, big rims, airbags, junction produce crap out the ass, useless curtains, etc. But I think the closest anyone has come to really pulling off a VIP look was fliplyricist1

Ya, germ that's mine...

It required a lot of stuff to get this point. This car is not worth the money to mod in order to do VIP!

The car that chris posted was FLIP's car.

It was well worth it! but that's not even the cherry on top on this bumper! can you notice anything different from the stock?

Other than the molded lip, not really, but it looks like either it's widebody or the wheel well is wider?

LOL, to Widebody! Maybe next year!

Wheel well is wider due to fender roll.

But the bumper is 2 inches taller than the stock bumper

oh very sorry i was actually referring to starboy's front bumper. lol...

i like it. very different in deed..of course i wouldnt put it on my car. cause it makes his car EXTREMELY original. justin's lip kit does great on my car. i think if i wanted to do something of the sort id prolly try to go wide body. maybe just the back. keep the front the same. ive seen wide body first gens before (tried to get them on here)..i like how it looks.


but yo switch your ride is definitely dope. the color is bad ass. usually i always just wanna go with your black or your white. dont think i can personally pull off other color cars. hows the ride on the air?...is it pretty good?

lol!! you better do the wide body right!! And make sure it flows with the car!

I was planning to widen my fenders but i said screw it. I'll do it another time!

Thanks man.... Air is amazing! So much more enjoyable than coils! I install it for living! I try to bag every car i can get my hands on!!

They made a fiberglass mold of the top of the bumper and chopped the top off of a aftermarket fiberglass r34 bumper (for an accord) and actually chopped it up in pieces and rebuilt it using alot of fiberglass. end result: heavy front bumper.
