Thanks. Yeah its not screaming VIP. But does have some vipstyle additions and once the stance is right that is going to help out alot. I wanted to get a JP Kit but im not spending that much on a kit.

Looks great. Definitely not VIP, but definitely has potential to be on the way. I'd say it'd be more in the Executive class?

To me ,VIP is pushing wheel fitment and ride height to the extreme, while staying calssy of course!

Good luck on your ride.

O i plan on droping it further. I just have not had a chance to yet. I cant wait for that.Hopefully next weekend i will have it drop more. The stance does mean alot. And right now thats the only thing im not happy with is the stance. By the end of the year im most def getting UAS.

well, one thing for sure...you've got the "fisherprice: my VIP starter kit" going on with the fusa, knot, pillows and curtains and JP banner. I'm sure you've got lots of mods in mind and can't wait to see them.

I appreciate it. This was a 1 owner car from a doctor in VA. I had a Mercedes that was a show car and i saw this GS400, and a day later the Benz was gone. I had over 30K in that benz. You don't see to many Black on Black GS400 for sale where im at in NC.

car looks great. I would say it looks VIP, maybe not compared to cars at a VIP show, but def compared to cars just for daily driving. Love the rims and curtains, rims match the car perfect.
