I searched their site and could not find them. I feel they could still be considered VIP, just paint to match. I think the idea behind those would be more for the weight difference versus the look. Could you post up a link?

I would say the fact they are HIGH end parts makes them VIP, IF and only If you Paint them to match.

So, if he paints his carbon fiber fender we can call it VIP and if it's a high end part its VIP? Interesting... This proves my earlier comment that "V.I.P" is in the eyes of the beholder and is in many ways...SUBJECTIVE. Is that fair to say?

Its not based off someones opinion at all. To be a VIP car it has to be one of the few VIP platforms Q45, GS450etc. and it has to carry the distinct look and stance. What you are saying is more recognized as VIP style not true VIP. Something having VIP style is totally different then it being a VIP car. There is a standard in the VIP look and having carbon fiber fenders painted to match your car will not affect that standard as long as it achieves the right look. There are some very nice VIP body kits that are made of strictly carbon fiber.
