I'd kinda like to check out the DFW Auto Club too, but that starts at 9AM. How late do they hang around? It might be kewl to meet at DFW Auto Club at Tollway and Park around 11-12 and then drive over to Twin Peaks on 75 and 15th at 1pm for the carwash.

We're talking about next weekend fellas! Who's in?

So here's the plan for tomorrow (Sat, Aug 23):

Meet at DFW Auto Club at Starbucks off the N. Tollway and Park Blvd. around 11-11:30AM.
At 12:30PM head over to Twin Peaks in Plano on 75 between 15th and Park for the 1PM bikini carwash and cold brews.

I think if we meet first at one location and then convoy to Twin Peaks all at the same time it will be more impressive

So far we have...

mac55 - Black C55
C32AMGSC - Black C32
elprofe55 - C55 [color?]
bfnnrgn - Black SL65
ArsnlKen ???
BLKFIN ???
krnboy817 ???

Anybody else?

Well, I decided to return my C32 to MB.
I dropped it off on the 4th last week at Park Place in Bedford.
It was kind of hard to let go, but I'm ready for something else.

I did just find out that my GT-R will be here next week, which is nearly 2 months early.
I have already started buying CF pieces and new side markers for it.

I had JRs tint my GT-R yesterday. They had the moleskin put in, and I think it turned out nice. 20% on the sides and 5% on the quarter windows and back.

They also did a really nice custom install for my Valentine. . . if anyone is actually still reading this thread, I'll post some pics.
