WTF. Seriously. this VIP stuff is getting lamer and lamer. To make the car luxury is one thing but to hang the same style curtains that I remember my grandma's 82 chevy conversion van having is stupid.

Yea i definately understand that this is not everyones "cup of tea." But there is something to be said about being secure enough with ones manhood to be able to rock "feminine" and "sissyish" curtains with crystals.

Thanks guys!

Calling people "Sissies" because they like something makes you a hater. But whatever I'm over it. Peace.

Taste is subjective!

So you're saying "Real" tuners dont think this whole "The Fast and The Furious" theme thats been going on with the past few years isn't "LAME?!" HAHA. Half the cars i've seen on this forum are inspired by that damn movie. Not saying its a bad thing but TASTE is, very much, subjective.

I'm just trying to get people to open thier eyes and see that there are other alternatives to fix up ones car. You dont have to follow the whole "APC" and "Fast and Furious" trend.

Alright guys, Well i decided to step it up just another notch since all this VIP/ Exec stuff is going on. Garson Executive Curtains for front and rear. I did it the way Garson recommends on doing it where you run 2 pairs on the rear doors. I think it looks much better this way. These Swarovski crystals are incredible. They bling and shine really nice.

Im also still running the curtains on the rear side little windows and the trunk.

Well enough of that and on with the pics.

You have a nice setup going!

But that's not for me. Putting up curtains in a car, why?

Don't flame me or anything I'm just curious why would you need curtains in the car?

It looks good but like I said why?

Well, for me, and others we would like to take our Box camping, and/or really dig the whole VW Bus thing, but for a lot of people it's for either tokin' or *******' or both.

those're badass, and it's even cooler that you're willing to drop $350 to go all out VIP. I've got a couple faux velvet pillows in my back seat to make it more like a couch.

hey there, i'm like jason i have a some sets of those curtains but they still in the box. must be a hawaii thing we so laid back. lol!!! anyway. did you cut your 3rd set to fit the smaller window? also how did you put 2 set in the back door? did you cut/trim those also or just over lap them (actually side by side, on the box they show 2 ways of putting them next to each other)? sorry for the ten million questions. i can't read japanese. i was just looking at the pictures. oh one more thing there's 2 sets of tape. one with the red covering and one with the light blue covering. what's the difference.


thanks in advance.

after taking your photos apart in photoshop looks like you just put them side by side. correct me if i'm wrong. but still what's the difference between the 2 tapes.

kory you got the executive or the normal? for the rear windows, they may work side by side but you are supposed to cut them shorter so say both fit and meet in the middle.

the sconce's wiring needs to be pushed through a drilled hole in the panels to look cleaner.

it's the same box as above, but if the difference is on the side it says normal.
