- 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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dammit Charles, you're gonna kill a trend :P LOL

No fusa, no table, no curtains

and SorrGwa is from van, he's one of the RS mods

Ive got a JP Fusa and Kintuna in my SC. I had Anceltion Curtains last year but I didnt like them on the SC since we dont really have big windows in the rear. So I let my friend have them for his JP style GS. And plus, I think I would end up losing them out on the track.

I don't wanna be off base here, but the term "LUX" would be the style of a sports car w/ VIP attributes, not so much vip. Second, the car looks tight(a little high for me), but tight and to whomever said the front looks "buldgy, reminds you of stock neon" well your front lip ain't lookin all that smooth either, actually flows even less, but yours (sc) does nicely! I say go for it and make a decison after. Most ppl just tint'em and no doubt tint is played out. Come original!

i can see where he's getting the neon reference from, no need to flame him. however, with the SC's longer fender and that little built in line below the handle it pulls it off alright. But, it's intended to be a sporty car, kind of the more luxurious version of the supra for those who wanted the sporty and higher society aspect (when they were out, obviously now the supra is way more exclusive)

I would say nay on the curtains as well. BUT, it can be "VIP" styled. You can always style you car without the aggressive, flared out body kit and then get stuck in the "drifter" catagory. Take a look at this sc. This is one of my favorite kits for the sc.

looks like my car is leaning to the drifter style for those who've seen it..So I am just doing the interior with some VIP touches. The Auto Couture kit is awesome but way out of my budget.

I've always liked this SC. Looks very VIP style to me but still has a Vertex kit. Taken from http://charlescharlescharles.com/sc/
