  • Introducing Sleez - The soon to be VIP Passat

    Now seems a good time to introduce myself and my car. I'm 18 and have just upgraded to a 2.0l B5.5 Passat SE from my Mk4 Polo. I'm very much involved with the VW scene and like my cars to be a bit different so hopefully I can do something interesting with this.

    Here is my Polo

















    I like to combine euro look with elements of VIP style with my own twist which is what I plan to do with this. Some will love it and some will **** it.

    Not got many pictures of the car stock but its reasonably clean and tidy. Will be sorting out a few bits of bodywork in the not too distant future.



    Here are a few of my initial plans:

    Buy adapters to fit the new wheels
    215/35/18 tyres
    Sort out a few bits of paint
    Black leather and grey suede seats
    Snakeskin headlining
    Fridge in compartment between rear seats
    Few junction produce and custom VIP accessories
    Tinted windows
    Possibly a few US spec bits
    Chrome debadged grill
    Chrome mirror covers
    Pioneer ICE
    Wood interior trim

    First mod I did was naturally sorting out the stance so dumped it on coilovers

    Next up was to get the car into the workshop for a compound and mop polish. Then gave the car a few coats of wax.





    Here are some pics to show the direction I am heading

















    Next I got my adapters and 215/35s stretched on to the 8s to make sure I can still run low with the poke. Few other small bits are brake callipers freshened up in Gold and Chrome wing mirrors.

























    And have a pic of the new 'bathroom feature'



    that's where I'm at so far!

    Not to sure if those wheels fit the Bippu style, but looks like you're headed in the right direction.

      I really hope you plan on getting different wheels for the VIP style, these are a complete miss in my opinion...

      Would be interesting to see a VIP Passat, but I can't say I see it.

        I like your idea on diversity, just not really convinced if I see VIP being pulled off. Looking forward for your further progression though!

          Yeah I know. I'm not going for all out VIP. I just want to include elements of VIP style. The VIP will mainly come into play when I start on the interior. I think the wheels look better in real life rather than in the photos. I'm happy enough with them

            OMFG repeat the leopard.
            OMFG bathroom feature win

            I think you have the right styling cues to pull this off, but I also think you need different wheels

              love the bike in the bathroom.
              the missus would kill me if i did that.

              love the ideas, but as others have said, a different set of wheels...

              something like this

                I agree with most all of thia ^^^^ like your ideas, come up with something a little more VIP for the wheels/fitment to tie everything together.
