Explain this vip theory. If its vip like a famous person then im pretty surethey dont drive hondas... If i were you id start saving money because quality isnt cheap and at $7 an hr its gonna take a while to get quality parts

None of the questions you're asking have been technical. You need to look through the Appearance forum for ideas. And you can do anything you ant to your car if you have enough money. Don't understand the need to ask this question at all.

Oh it's just like all of the shitty stanced out cars hipsters build these days. A Civic sedan doesn't scream luxury. Sorry.

VIP-style requires money. Even if the platform isn't a traditional VIP platform, you still need to represent it as such. Things like the wheels, ride height, and body work need to be just so. And, to be honest, the parts don't come too cheap. However, if you're not in a hurry, even you on a McD's paycheck can accomplish the goal. Just take your time, and you'll get there.

A wooden steering wheel and some BBS rims with a drop HARDLY makes your car VIP style. The pics you posted look just like the stupid cambered, stretched tire nonsense kids are into right now. TBH much of what they call VIP is what the Lowrider scene has been doing for decades.

Thailand has had quite a large amount of success making non-traditional chassis in to VIP styled cars.

I disagree. Not uncomfortable if you do it right.

Meh I can only just dream lol I was gonna reupholster the interior to black carpet and black seats. I could just sell the car and also get $3k more to get a used is300, if the civic can't be vip styled

That EG Civic is more German style, at least that's what we call it here.

I don't think a Civic is really suitable for this, real VIP styled cars are more expensive/classy looking cars imo. If you want a Honda which can pull off the VIP look you should get a Legend or even an older Accord.

I agree with the legend and accord lol unless I get a domani/el conversion but thats highly unlikely for me I guess I can just purchase a different car just like the ones you said or give up the vip style
