Nice car but exhaust, tailights, and body kit have to go. I also dont think floating CF hoods are VIP or VIP style. However I do love the dished Scaras. Ive never really seen a picture of them on another car other than the reverse lip version. Clean!

I was actually trying to do a mix of VIP and racing. I'm just trying a different route. That why I said VIP influnced. Thank you for your criticism. The front bumper has been revised and is now a one-off

I don't see any VIP influence there. The Scaras don't flow with the car. I'd rather see some Volks on there.
If you wanted some more VIP influence, I'd work on wheel fitment and stance. Those flares make the wheels look really sunken in. But stretched tires and camber don't really work out when you need traction in a boosted car.

this was at the body shop.
the bumper is a hippo sleek with a silver carbon fiber greddy lip molded onto it. this lip was a prototype and it did not go into production

Not trying to bash or anything but I don't even see an ounce of VIP there. Slapping on some scaras and and a large tsuna does not even earn the status of "influenced". Not to say its not a nice car, so dont get me wrong. I'm sure a lot of work went into it. But to me it just looks like a tuner/show car with VIP brand wheels, nothing more
