Work in progress: VIP S2000
Some pics of my current project.....

It's a Tamiya Honda S2000 kit painted Pure White. The interior will be red/black combination. I just need to paint the interior but it's too cold here. The wheels are 19" Carlsson.

Comments and suggestions are very welcome...

s2000 isn't my idea of a 'VIP' car but yours looks good. i'm working on one myself at the moment.

Re: Work in progress: VIP S2000
Love the thought process. IMO the Carlssons are out of place. I would go with a different VIP wheel combo. Something with a lip.

Great job thus far!

I love the idea but those wheels just don't "do it" for me; perhaps some Amistad Lotinos? Pay no attention to my reply, it was only my opinion.

"Thats sweet, i think those wheels look good on there!" +1 hahaha! i love your idea of a vip style s2k, but i think you need some big a$$ skirts/ground effects to have a more proper vip look to it. it's a VIP/Drifter class, IMO. it's a show stopper, but it can go drifting like some RX7s from gp sports.

The Honda S2000 you are making is good but I think the only thing you need would be a hood with an air opening

The paint/color looks great! Another tip to make it more VIP would be to put those HUGE mufflers!

I also wouldn't class this as VIP but that's a good thing IMAO. It agrees with my eyes as is.
