Default Sweden VIP Cars

Hi all.

Its about time to start the beginning of the build of my GS430.

It all started last summer when i bought it. And plans for the only "true" VIP car in the country started to take shape. After many months of trying to set up conections around the globe for parts and ppl to help out.

Every part i need is either in Japan or the states so it is a nightmare to get everything to work within decent prices. First guy that opened my eyes more was James @ vipdout.com and have had alot of conversations with him, then he introduced me to many nice ppl in here that has realy helped me stay motivated.

So heres the list of parts that will go on car the upcoming 2-3 months.

Exterior:
  • TTE Lip
  • JP 3piece wing
  • Insurrance tails
  • Chrome trunk bar
  • license plate Ledīs
  • Windowtint
  • Take front headlightwashers away.
  • Custom Licenseplate holder.
  • Custom Exhaust tips
  • Custom striping

Interior:
  • JP neckpads
  • JP Seat pillows
  • JP curtains
  • Vipdout.com table /black leather

Engine:
  • SRT intake
  • PPE headers

Chassi:
  • BCR extreme dropkit
  • Figs rear mega arms
  • SPC Front Camber/Caster Adjustable Upper Arm
  • And refreshments of whats needed.

Rims:

Did order workwheels but due to tragedy in Japan i will not get them in time for the build to be ready so this is still abit open. Something wide and deep with steplip thats for sure.

Now to the pics of how the ride looks atm.

Nice and clean! I love the second pic. I agree with nine3es about the steering. I have black interior as well, what do you use to clean?
