Hey guys/gals,

I'm glad to have met some of you already. Chris, Jayre, and Thomas came by the shop already, and I met some more members @ SEMA and @ the T4T Christmas meet.

For those of you who don't know who I am, My name is David and I am a Partner in a shop called "ViP Status" in the city of Torrance. I've been in the business personally since '96 and between my partner, my lead technician and myself, we've had a combined experience of over 40 years.

We offer parts and services to the aftermarket enthusiasts, but mainly target the higher echelon market. We mainly work on BMW's, Mercedes Benz', Lexus', Porsche's, and Exotics. We do however have a steady following of the JDM crowd, but mostly from the 350Z and G35 crowds. Our main specialty is wheels, but we also offer suspension, aerodynamics, and bolt on power components. We also offer installation for all the parts we carry. Our performance section is not in par with such as VF Engineering, but we do offer ECU's and exhausts.

Please visit our website to find out more about us and what we offer. I hope to meet many of you soon! I think you are a great group of guys and keep up the great work on the forums!

FYI... Harris from Instyle Graphics is conveniently located within our facilities, so we also offer Clear Bras, Vinyl, Full Vehicle Wraps, Digital Wraps, Custom Graphics, and graphic design.
