Hard to say without seeing it first.... Have you found any pictures or been on cardomain to find some? It may look good, but again hard to say without seeing.

these is probably the most VIP SC/Soarers out there...and they don't have curtains. I don't know I think curtains look weird on our windows because of the angle....Plus I don't really see our cars as being VIP

that SC looks nice, but that front bumper looks a bit off. where it buldges when it meets the front fender. remindes me of a stock dodge neon (first gen). hope i didnt diss anyone by saying that, but it does! everything else just flows...

I haven't seen curtains in a SC yet, but then it's probably a reason for not seeing them?
THEY DON"T LOOK GOOD! window angle is a odd cut, curtains IMO look better on 4 dr cars...hence the privacy slide you see on most VIP...you could always add a few JDM touches such as the FUSA or K-Not. If you don't know what this is pm me.

Gay. You don't need the curtains man! VIP the interior with some nice leather, gated shifter, MAYBE you could stick a JP table in there. You seem to be on your way with the kit, but maybe losing your front bumper was a sign you should go with a 97+ front end and a vertex or bigwin lip, and lose the more aggressive, less classy vertex front bumper.

i guess I should stay away for the curtains then..

So far I am getting the following to give my car some VIP touch:
- OEM front n rear leather seat
- somekind of OEM leather steering wheel
- gated shifter
- Garson's table
- a Fusa maybe!!!??

I dont think I will go with the 97+ bumper with big win lip kit. it doesnt flow with my side and rear..nor the aggressiveness of my rims.

n SorrGwa, are you happen to live in Vancouver BC??? I swear to god I see your sig somewhere in a local car forums...but don't exact rmb which one.....and NO. SC doesn't look like a neon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not too big on Garson tables but I guess you can put it in ... take out the passenger wood trim perhaps? Fusa is definitely a must for VIP...damn I want to buy a fusa but my car is not VIP lol

I don't think it looks off...I think that's just how it looks like factory, although it isn't
