Personally, I think the TL isn't wide enough for VIP-style. I think the biggest problem would be the wheelwells being unable to fit the overly wide lip rims. Probably best bet is to search for Japanese Honda Inspires and see if any have been done up VIP-style.

your probly the only one. ill be honest VIP is dope but there isnt any company that makes VIP things for the tl that us in the US can get our hands on. wide body, air bags, like someone said our wheel wells are restrictive as to how wide your wheels can be, grilles, subtle full bumber body kits, etc. its a great idea but unless you have a hookup overseas and a good 10-15k to spend,forget about it.

I'll be trying to hit that show haha . Its hard for a TL to be vip since most of the VIP cars are rwd, and big body. I am aiming for that look too.

Bro, you're probably the closest one to being VIP from the 2nd Gen group. Can't wait to see your ride when all is said and done.

I think any luxury Car can be turned VIP style. Bascially its just larger wheels with clean lines and is either black, white, or Grey. mostly dark and suddle colors. Our TLs can be VIP just keep it clean with no crazy wild body kits. look at the flyer couple post above it has a second gen Tl in there. ID Say VIP is Sweet!!!..

Yeh bro, I think it was because of that rear bumper with that big hole (or what ever you call that) in it. But, I think when FixedTL is all done, that car will be the shyt

BTW, I can't remember who's car this is, but here is one attempt at a 2g TL VIP style. I'm feein' the fender flares and the molded bodykit. Not really feeling the spoiler, window deflectors / visors, exhaust, the cheap looking mesh on the front air dam and the rims to some extent. But I must say this is quite a unique TL.

from the side view, it looks like a VIP style TL, but compare with the rest of the pictures, they exaggerated the accomplishment and turned into what was once supposed to be a VIP style into more of a ricer style with the spoiler and the front bumper kit. don't you guys think so too?

i agree, to mee it seems like he saw a vip style car and then went ricer with it aswell. i dont think he really new what a vip car style is, or did allot of research on it. seems he was confused and spent more money then he should have

I knew that was REV-01's car, VIP is sick, check out Junction Produce, fabulous, they all make some hot ass shit, but in my opinion you really need a RWD car to do it right. Lexus, Infiniti's dominate the scene, well have to see what rev's got up his sleeve his prolly the closest to VIP on this site.
