Yeah that's the problem with the car bra's...go get Xpel next time. I suggest you just Zaino the hell out of that part of the car...and then ask the guys at the meet about it, they'll know good Dallas places. I may be up there, I'll take a look at it.

The key is to take off the bra everytime it gets wet and dry it. I have been using one on my car since my 1986 Accord and it saves most of the front paint with no damage underneath.

To add an image under your screen name:

1)click on user cp
2) click on edit options
3) scroll down to change avatar and choose which one you want.

If you would like to make your own, you will need to resize it to the maximum size of 90 by 90 pixels or 20000 bytes (whichever is smaller).

To add an image at bottom:

1) click on user cp
2) edit profile
3) Click inside signature and add the image tag and URL.

Sounds good to me...it's a 1.5 hour trek for me so we'll see...but I will try for sure. That is if my alternator is back in my car by then . Do me a favor...email me at Austin519@aol.com with directions on how to get to wherever you guys are going to meet from Austin (highway 35) so I know...

i'm assuming 35E is the same 35 that goes down to austin from dallas...

once you reach downtown dallas, you there's 2 ways:


1)keep going north on 35E and then connect to 635 to head east, then 635 will take you to 75 (central expressway) and head north once again.

2)once you reach downtown dallas, go east on Woodall Rogers (the very short highway on the north side of downtown dallas) and connect to 75 and head north. then, after a while, you will pass 635 (just keep going north)


on 75 north, you will see hwy 190 (bush turnpike). take 190 and head east and exit renner [its not far, maybe 2nd or 3rd exit]. make a left at the light, and right as you go under the bridge, make an immediate left, and you should see us there

*renner is also an exit off of 75, south of 190, but dont be confused. do not take this exit, although this is the same renner as you exit on 190, it meets later because renner bends



i hope i didnt confuse the heck outta you, but go ahead and take a look in yahoo maps using the zip code 75081 and it should show you the segment of 75 between 635 and 190

ok, to add to that, i just talked to someone that travels between Austin and Dallas often, and the easiest way is as follows:

1) 35 goes north and splits before you actually get to Dallas, 35E and 35W. 35E goes to Dallas, 35W goes to Ft. Worth.

2) after that you will see I-30 which will head east. just take a right onto I-30 from 35E.

3) take that (which will be short) to hwy 75 and then head north. the key is to follow the signs directing you to Denison and/or Sherman through 75.

i will email these directions as well so that you will have my email address.
