Thanks for all the comments guys!
Some answers to some questions I saw;
Grill; Its the stock grill, just painted flat black and kept the Mushroom Polished
Intake; Its the Kinetix... just high polished rather then the electro polish.
Paint; Paint is a PPG Magic Magenta Candy.
Headlights; Indeed, A clear corners headlight build.
Interior; most of the interior has been sueded and I switched out the seats to the Recarro Top Lines. I'll get some pics today I hope.
The question everyones been asking. is it still a dd?
My old set up was a dd. im sure people saw the amount of paint chips and scrapes on my car from shows before, Give me a month or two and this car will prolly have some road damage on it, haha.
I wont be driving it EVERYDAY, but a cple times a week to team events wouldnt hurt.. The guys that go to the AU meets might see it there one night as my team meets up there a lot.
Thanks for the comments guys!

Now I am just trying to have one of the nicest daily driven sedans out there.

I wish I went your route as you can really enjoy the $$ into the car rather then to enjoy it pleasing the crowds..
Either way my friend, you have an excellent sedan... Im sure you wont mind not going all out when you get to suprise some street cars with your power
Thanks buddy , your car is simply amazing. We all can't wait to see more pictures! ...drool... I hope to turn my car into more of a weekend/show driver a few years down the line. For now she's all I have.
Keep me updated on the wire tuck. That is one major job on the VQ. If you can iron out all the small issues I might consider trying that myself. I think you are the first to do it? Maybe you could start another thread on it when it's done. Thanks!!

Flat black was used on the front grill.
The headlight was also flat black, work was done by Mike @ clearcorners.

Haha, the tuck was completed but I need to put about 500 miles on the car before I can see how it went. Right now I have a lot of lights on my dash board, we havent had time to trouble shoot them yet but hopefully soon!
Pnut, I have no words to say to you bro... You are simply INSANE! Your attention to detail and desire to push the envelope is a rare treat for us to watch from the sidelines.
