Default VIP Style

Hey I'm looking for anyone local who considers their cars to be modified in a VIP style to interview for an article. I'm writing about this trend in car modification and I'm hoping to find some people who really know about the scene and maybe others who have just been influenced by it. It's an article for the De Anza paper so it won't be extremely technical in nature but will definitely cover some background on the scene, what defines it, and how it's influencing the import and tuner scene as a whole. So if anyone could give me some good info and doesn't mind being quoted in the article that would be great. PM me on CL or AIM. My AIM is justin clapper. Thanks!

PM lightwave76. He is one of the only Norcal members with a VIP platform car that seems to truly have a grasp on what VIP is.

And if anyone reads this and doesn't have time to answer those questions tonight but thinks they really have something to add let me know because tomorrow is definitely not the final deadline I just have to have something in. Probably should have put that in the PMs I sent out haha but oh well, thanks anyways!
