2nd Generation A few vip camry pics

My new chrome grill is on the way, and the chrome handles are on too. The interior blue is on its way out as well. What else can I go guys for good taste? Thinking about a wood steering wheel too.

I'm gonna have to agree on that with you.

The only "VIP" your car has are chrome rims, and IMO that's not even VIP.

ok guys, I know it isn't some 40k-50k luxury sedan but you get my point. Im trying to "style" the car in image of a real V.I.P. car.

I can see where you are going with this style. Seems to be coming along nicely. There is one thing I see that needs work, the wheel gap. Not so much the ride height, but when you look at most any VIP ride the wheel gap is literally gone. And there in lies the problem with VIP styling a second gen. But we've got ample room for an air setup, finding one that's just a bolt on is not possible. However if you've got the know how or money, there you go. I know the wheel gap will start to bother you, hell my wagon looks like a monster truck when parked next to a laid out LS430. I'll be cutting a coil or two on my Intrax once I swap to daily use of my Cressida. Anyway keep up the good work, and ignore those who are missing your point.

For those who have no idea what VIP cars are and VIP styled cars are, just visit www.vipstylecars.com there you'll find the.. um low down.

The size of the wheels is cool, only thinner spokes would look sleeker but overall it's alright. You should get some clear corners up front and maybe black drums for your rear brakes as well. Post some pics when you get the grill on.

Some of the cars on the link Hirosada posted are fantastic.

Explaination

VIP refers to a popular style based in Japan. VIP cars were driven by Yakuza and businessmen. Usually larger luxury sedans (such as Lexus LS430) with large chrome wheels with a wide lip, as low as possible and a little positive? camber making the tops of the wheels tilt in more than the bottom. Cars were usually black with limo tint AND curtains in the back to make it even darker. A lot of times there are body kits that make the car even lower. VIP cars have to be Japanese cars and along with a LARGE chrome grill usually have an emblem on the hood (think along lines of Mercedes Benz). That is VIP. Jon.
