Any of you Houston guys planning on going this weekend?

Since my mistress (or is it wife since I'm not married?) has a bum leg I'll roll the WS6 up, haha or maybe even the S10 haha I'll post a picture later and you'll all laugh at my "mini-truck" and see why I'm laughing. Let's just say it sits a 1/2" off the ground when the air is out, among other things.

There's an urban speed meet on the 10th...

What sucks is I just stripped all the wax off my car in prep for a cut and buff, so If I get that done Friday (I'm taking off work, I had left over vacation from last year..woot!) we'll see about the show. Oh and I've got the spare on the left front, its so sexy like that.

Brooke, you getting a new PB on Friday night?

I've never been to a local cars and coffee event, but would like to check it out. I may attend the February event.

Off topic: Can any of you local guys recommend a parts supplier? I need wiper blades, but don't want to get raped by the dealership. I couldn't find any at my local auto parts shop or Discount tire. Thanks.

Here is some pics from last weekend.

I actually got my wipers at walmart... Any 26" wiper blade should work. I think I've got Rain-X latitudes and they work pretty well. I use rain-x glass cleaner every time I wash my car and it works really well so I don't really need amazing blades.
