Use DataGrid_witStyle at flexdiary.blogspot.com. This sort of thing is exactly why I wrote it. Check out the itemRenderer example I provided if you need to use style properties that don't exist in your itemRenderer's base class.
Note that at least part of your problem is coming from the fact that you're doing the set style in set data() rather than in an override of updateDisplayList(). Reread the docs on the component life cycle, and check out Alex and Gordon's article on that topic in Flex Authority. I think you can still get the issue as a download, though you may have to pay for it. What it will save you in learning curve will be well worth it.
