Default Curtains - VIP?

Hey guys,
I'm looking to pick up a set of Garson or Aceltion cartains.
Question is, are these considered bippou?

I see a lot of interior products in Japan and I was wondering if VIP is for the usual kits, slammed, air-susp, etc.?

(Noob trying to go bippou)

It would be considered a 'bippu' accessory, but wouldn't make a car 'bippu' just because of it.

Hahaha, yeah. Hopefully my wallet can stand up to transforming it into a worthy bippu machine.

So Garson or Aceltion? Anyone have any suggestions? I'm personally leaning toward the Garson but the Aceltion seems to be quicker to get.

Garson curtains are nice if you want some bling in the interior, but they're very pricey compared to the Anceltion curtains. Even though I like the Garson curtains a little more, I would go with Anceltion because I already have some Anceltion parts on my car.

Easy to get Anceltion parts eh???

Where???

I put in a request to order these parts from a very reputable Distributor of Anceltion parts and to this day (over 1 month) I STILL have not received a "QUOTE" let alone parts...

I was able to get the full Anceltion Kit in less than 1 month...go figure..

Now for those of you with the cartains, did you put the front + rear? I was thinking of doing just the rear.

A few of my buddies got their curtains from autofashion in San Diego and they are very happy with the great service.
