I just slamed my gs on 20's and was looking around for a body kit. UNfortunately, There are no body kits out there that follow VIP culture without a rediculous price tag.
DOES anybody know where I can get a lip kit for cheap or am I the only one thats broke

Other than replica kits (but I have not seen a VIP style copy), they are not cheap AND you are not the only one that is broke.



That's just how it goes when modding a Lexus (or any of the luxury cars), especially in the VIP area. They don't call it VIP for nothing.

I have to agree....personally especially considering you have a LEXUS....dont go cheap! I would rather save up for the real deal parts trust me. it is totally worth it in the end.

Im not sure VIP and cheap can be used togethor

This is true for any car. High quality and cheap just can't be found together. There is possibly one exception, occasionally a high quality used item can be found at a much lower price. Even then, there are risks in buying used that you wouldn't have buying new.

BRS will have a High quality VIP style Body kit early 2006. I spoke with them at SEMA. They ususaly do widebody kits but the GS kit will not be.

I have no idea on the price, but it will be less than the true JDM kits.

I don't see how where the product is manufactured has anything to do with how VIP it is. Yes, VIP styling is totally Japanese and maybe that culture has the history and know-how to make those styles, but bring all the designers over here and make the kit here. How is that different?

I think a lot of people put too much emphasis on bodykits when it comes to "VIP styling". But the truth of the matter is, a bodykit doesn't make a car look VIP.

This is just my opinion though.......

I agree, the true definition is wider and lower.

Refer to diagram (a) for definition and refer to diagram (B) for an example.

True according to whom.

And the diagram B is not VIP. It is already knocked out of the class just by the fact that it is not a VIP category car. But then again, that is by some other definition. I am not sure who owns the rights to define VIP.
