not really VIP (sorry but even if you spend 100k on a 40k car, it's still a 40k car); but a very nice car nonetheless;
if you really are gonna go for the "VIP-esqe" look, take off the roof spoiler, the black paint/overlay to the tinted rear window is suddenly interrupted by that white strip and i think it detracts from your overall look.
also not a great fan of the front eyelids; makes your car looks really really sleepy; but meh, that's not too big a deal ~ however, what would really set off your lights really nicely regardless would be to go double angel eyes/demon eyes
do you know what material was used to mold the lines of your A-spec kit to the bumper? it's definitely a sweet idea; but i'm just worried that over time cracks will start to show up because bondo won't hold with just plastic.
i like what you did with the taillights, very subtle, very clean. glad to see you back and not creating unnecessary comments
if possible try taking a night shot of the rear of your car, i'd like to see how the taillights come out lit far away; esp with the cls style trunk lip, i bet it looks really nice.
keep up the good work

Since this thread was bumped, I'll bite. This car is just... "ok". Too bling-bling for me. Then again, most of his ideas go against my principles anyway. There are dozens of TL's here I'd pick over his just because of the shaved door handles. I mean, WTF... That sits right up there with lambo doors. <sigh>

Not really my thing either, but I can appreciate the work that went into it.
If I was gonna VIP a car, it would be a LS600, S600, S8, 7 series etc.
The TL was a sports sedan concept. In my opinion, it doesnt make the best VIP car.
