There are no items that are "better value" for earning Style Points. Style Points are 10% of the base price of an item, so it normally costs $500,000 cash to earn the 50,000 Style Points needed to reach Rank 10. Once Rank 10 is reached, the Style Meter displays an empty bar which immediately fills with any purchase, but the Rank does not increase further. The maximum Style Rank in Saints Row 2 is 10, and it takes a combined 50,000 Style Points to reach. The statistics menu lists the current Style Rank and the total Style Rating, which is the combined number of Style Points earned during the game. There are no Style Points awarded for buying Cribs, Stores, Food, Drugs, or Weapons. Buying Customization Items, Vehicles, Vehicle components, and Crib components, and music give Style Points.

The number of Style Points available to earn for buying each item is displayed next to the price of the item. Each Style Rank gives a 5% Style Bonus to the amount of Respect earned. When the Style Meter fills up, the Style Rank increases to the next level. It displays the current Style Rank, and the progress towards the next Rank, displayed as a yellow circular bar. The Style Meter is displayed in the top right of the store interface HUD. Earn enough Style Points to increase your Style Rank. All clothing, jewelry, tattoos, vehicle components, Cribs, and Stores you own give you Style Points.

The amount of Respect earned can be increased by raising your Style Rank. This grants a combined total of 8,250 Respect. A Style Rank of 2 gives a 10% Style Bonus for 750 Respect.

After completing the third level of " Snatch" in Saints Row 2, 7,500 Respect is awarded.
