| Price for the kit is $185.00 shipped within the 48 states. The kits are going through QA as we speak. I will post the PayPal address once they're all ready to ship. Stay tuned. |

You have a lot to learn.
Learn about VIP Style.
Wide, Low, crazy camber, stretched tires, drive slow. |

| So you guys actually want to intentionally wear out your tires and rear bearings on purpose, for the sake of your car looking like a POS Volkswagen bug? WOW! |

WOW, you guys need to do a little researching before your posting. Your ideas on what VIP Style is and how negative camber "destroys" tire tread may be alittle off cue.
Vip Style is not for everyone, negative camber is not for everyone.
Hey I think making my car faster then what I can legally is a waste, but you don't see me posting on those threads:) |

It's a style... not for everyone, common sense says why but hey its evolved this way for years... Traditionally neg camber doesn't make a car VIP styled.... today that is the accepted norm and the current trend but really the style is still evolving to find its own identity....
I did a cool piece on the whole Japanese VIP style thing a few years ago... read it here
http://hincity.com/blogs/entry.asp?b=1&id=34590716KK9C7X6E0KC7Y6WB
Again dont take it to seriously, its a style, people will do weird things. I've never been a fan of stretched tires and neg camber myself but you can't deny the presence of a VIP Styled vehicle so points there! |
