I do have a few Benz and a couple of Porsche coming, I'm sorry there aren't more. However, it isn't my fault that more of those owners haven't registered for the event, they are more than welcome to.

And yes, my background is in Volkswagens and Audis, so many of my friends with those cars are coming. I'm not biased though and I don't want anyone to think I'm just "throwing a bone" to the other brands. I wanted this to be a mixed event when I first started advertising.

Also, I don't know why this is such a hard concept to understand, but the magical number "15" was just my estimation of how many "Other" makes would show up at the event. Its not that I am limited the registrations to just 15.
haha, eventually you'll figure out what I was saying... and I may have put together a few more events man... no offense but just keep an open mind to the suggestions you recieve, thats all Im saying

Ok everyone, It sounds like installs will be a popular attraction at Eurofest.

I take a large amount of pride in the work that I do and each install will take as long as it takes me to get it perfect.

I will try to get to all of you that are intested. Please forgive me if there are any technical difficulites with doing the installs. I will bring all my supplies and a power supply. I normally do installs at my garage where I know there are not out side factors to effect the install. If your interested in an install please get to me as soon as you get to the show. First come first serve. I hope this sounds fair. I am willing to try my best to work everything out to the best advantage of everyone. I hope that every one will take the time to stop by and check out an install. My plan would be to pull the car I am doing the install on directly under my tent. See you there.

Dan

Yes... absolutely... I will have my dSLR with me and I will take pictures of the booth and the cars and any work that you do... I was considering getting very light tint on the rear tails... maybe we can talk about that when we're there... Buegie are you okay with this?

I always use my Nikon D200:



Most of the time with my Nikor 18-200mm lens... And that is a GREAT all-around lens...

I just bought a Nikor 12-24mm lens for it yesterday and now I can take sick shots...

Thanks...

Regarding the Monro shop shot... try getting a shot like that with your lens... - won't happen, that's why I go the 12-24mm lens.

My friend runs that Monro so most of my friends with Euro cars go there for mods... We have an inside joke that the shop is called MonEuro!

What forecast are you looking at? My fav local station is calling for sun and temps in the mid 60s. Weather should hold out fine.

I see alot of nice cameras up there. I think I've said this before, but if anybody wants to send me some nice pics after the event (preferably in RAW), I'll give you credit for them in the article that Eurotuner has agreed to run

I was thinking that these would be my gift to you guys. I hope that I have time to make enough of them!! We could also take donations on them and conribute more to Buegies donation to the Senior Center. I have no intention of makeing money of the Euorfest stickers.
