Which is why it is considered a VIP styled car not a VIP car.

Teh yaris will be closer to the V-DUB style. Of slammed cars with low offset wheels and tires stretched and tuckin.....lots of camber also.

But the most important thing is to be slammed.....here are some examples of slammed jettas

exterior appearance wise the difference between euro and vip is wheel selection and kit (if one is used) both are relatively similar though. Good fitting Weds make it more vip styled while some aggressive bbs' are more euro.

Your right though stance means everything. euro also tends to be coilover based and pushing the limits of driveablility where as majority (not all) of the VIP cars use air.

Those Vdubs look bad ass, my friend has an 09 GLI on coils with 19" Mercedes wheels in chrome...It looks like one of the very first vdubs in those pics with Mercedes wheels, their fat 3 spokes.

All I have to say is that any VIP project is gonna be super expensive. There is no way around it. Be patient on your kit don't get any 2nd rate AIT kit to go VIP keep searching. Also your rims n suspension r gonna cost the most. I know you don't wanna scrape so definately go with air. As for your interior go with the JDM DAD products. You should contact www.autofasionusa.com for all that. Ask for Freddie or Elroy and tell them Tony from San Diego sent ya. The rims, you're on your own.
Here is a pic of my friends 2nd Gen Xb to give you some more ideas:

I need to get back in the shop with some fiberglass and creat my own bumper. The rims are easy. Just buy them from an xB owner. Fitted a friends Eurolines on my sedan and it fit just fine.

check out the sedan threads on the forum if you want to see VIP done right(not overdone)
