Hello All

Hi everyone,

I just want to start off by saying this, I don't claim to be VIP or VIP style. I simply noticed similarities in my own tastes and what I have seen in these forums/ the VIP scene. I've read up on what is expected around here and understand there's a good amount of purists so to speak ha. Just wanted to clear all that up before I post pictures/ specs of my car. I'm not even in Japanese vehicle right now but I would love to start off on the right foot and do my research etc., before actually making the jump to a new car/ build. I admire the hard work and dedication to keeping things a certain way and hope to learn all I can from here before attempting anything.

My current vehicle is a 2011 VW Jetta.
Suspension specs:
Airlift performance series front struts
RE-5 rear bags with Koni Yellow rear shocks
Independent rear suspension swap from previous model to get rid of the rear beam setup that came with 2011 model jetta.
modified lower control arms to seat bags inside control arm housing without use of a D-cup bracket. (approx. 1 1/2" lower from this in the rear)
Accuair E-level Management with Viar 444Compressor

Wheel specs:
Running CCW lm20's
F18x9 et38 w/ 2.5" lips
R18x10 et38 w/ 3.5" lips
I now have chrome gold nrg lug nuts to match the gold arp hardware used on my CCW's (I haven't taken pictures since I installed them)
Was on hancook tires in this picture, but recently switched to toyo proxes.

Exterior:
Votex front valance
GLI side skirts (temporary)
GLI rear bumper
Aftermarket headlights w/projector housings
Color matched rear reflectors

Interior:
wrapped shit boot, A and C pillars in a plaid pattern I fancied
Avic z130bt head unit/ nav
Hybrid audio technologies Clarus and Myrus speakers w/ crossovers/tweeters.
2 10" Alpin type-r dual VC subwoofers with rockford fosgate amp.
sub enclosure incorporates 5 gal aluminum skinny tank compressor and VU4 manifold.

It lays frame/ bumper in the front and I have about 3/4 inch gap between gas tank and ground in the rear (a switch to airlift rear shocks would fix this, since they're shorter)

and finally pictures:
