VIP uses air suspension because Japs don't need to drive 100 miles everyday (see, they use the car on an occational basis - 100 miles a month maybe ). But here is the US, if you get air suspension, then you are looking at to change the tires every 1/2 years, roll up, that's a BIG $$$, but I know, TED, you got tire sponsorship already, so go for VIP

How do you know they drive their cars only 100 miles / month? Most Japanese VIP websites I see, those guys are real huge on the mpg that they get on their cars. Heck, they even post excel spreadsheets of how much gas they are using per day. Do you know SOARISTO? His car has over 150,000 miles on the odometer!!! I mean even some of their cruises go for hundreds of miles into the mountains for photoshoots and meets. I am not sure exactly where you are getting the 100mile/month number. The reason why people get air is so that they can raise and lower the car whenever/wherever they want - to make their cars more "drivable" so to speak.
Ok, maybe I drive even less than that on my Aristo, but we are not talking abt me now, aren't we? HEhehe.

you will lose alignment when use air suspension, which means 1/2 life for your tire unless your car is not a daily driving machine

Respecting those guys who do know the most about vip and the great info included-
Those things chrome trunk bars, window wisors, and fusas- even though they are
stereotypes of what it is to be vip, and get one is an easy way to look vip- if it makes
you happy then so what . It's being taken a bit too far if there are all these rules
to follow in order to do something which is for your enjoyment . That is exclusive,
expensive but also a little negotiable, correct? Someone can consider themselves a
vip even though they don't change fenders and what not? As long as you are well
enough informed- then do whatever you like. You seemed that you really want to do it
and that's what matters. In other words I hope you didn't completely change your
mind because you think of it as too much work

Your car looks very nice the way it is.......... you dont have to do anything to your car to make it VIP. I should know Im around these folks all the time. There is NO such thing as what it should or shouldnt have. Mild to wild......... do what is best for YOUR style.
Id take your car in my VIP club just as it is...............
Jon he DOESNT need streched tires and he DOESNT need to spend $$$$$$$$. Just because you spent alot doest mean everyone one else has tooooooo.
Chrome handles - trunk bar - windvisors is NOT for everyone. If this is what you like then cool add something new to your ride if NOT then its okay.
I hear this all the time well so - n- so told me I need to have this to be VIP. My friends in my club and I just laugh. try something NEW and if folks like it they will copy it never know someone might just say its a must to have what you came up with a yr from now.
Windvisors NO one liked 2 yrs ago now look everyone wants one...........

Everyone is so fast to rip someone for putting stuff on their car that isn't the norm or what everyone else on here would deem acceptable for a lexus. I will just leave it at that!
