I'll try to go to the next one November 18

 

Has anyone been to the First Texas Honda Cars and Caffeine meet before?

 

I have not been. I like First Texas Honda, though.

 

I plan on bringing my RL if anyone wants to meet me there. 9:00-11

 

 

35 is the wurst.. wish I could help you.. I ride dirty
@kurtatx is always bitching about his cheap paint, maybe he knows of a good shop

I can recommend a top notch bumper shop though that does a decent job of blending
This wild ass dude has a shop called Bumpers Rx.. I haven't been by his place in years, but he's a chemical engineer
They were on Research near Toyota, but I think their new shop is in Pflugerville..

Give them a call and see what's up.

 

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll give them a call soon.

 

Well super late into the game. Any of you guys active? Facebook?

 

I think more people are active on the Acura TL Generation 4 facebook group.

 

Facebook
Gross

That's some Kurt shit

 

TL?
Gen 4 TL?
Gen 4 TL Facebook?

You kids need Satan.

 

Anyone from the Austin area still linking up together? Been looking for a good crowd to hang out with.

 

some of us out here but not a whole lot of gathering up. We are mostly active on Facebook under the normal TL groups.

I'd like to meet others eventually. Need work done on mine.

 

Yeah, not with the pandemic. I'm not opposed to it someday.

I've met a handful of y'all

 

Austin Azine section is like Tindr for 'Rona. Swipe right.

 

more like Grindr? Guys trying to meet guys. I haven't been able to seal the deal. I do want to meet guys in my area

*edit* but not during covid. And no homo but yall better have a sense a humor.

 

I guess "crowd" is a poor choice of word during this time haha. I was at World Racing League and Edge Addicts at COTA recently working on my boss/friend's cars and it occurred to me I have no car enthusiast friends out here and decided to reach out on here. I'll start being active on here more since I refuse to be active on Facebook. Looking forward to meeting you all soon one day.

Lots of homo you mean. I gotcha.

 

Before I post it on the marketplace, I was wondering if anyone here is interested in purchasing a used ATLP quad exhaust (non-resonated). Have one for sell.

 

Hey I'm visiting this weekend. Any recommendations for a tourist like me. I'll try Franklin's if the line isn't insane but Terry Black's will be my backup. I hear Veracruz Tacos are great. I have a reservation at Uchiko. Thanks

 

Uchiko is great! One of our favorites. As far as a backup to Franklin's I would suggest "La Barbecue"

As far as other things to do and see, the bats under Congress Avenue bridge are there but they aren't quite as impressive this early in the season (they're crazy in August). South Congress is kind of the place to go for touristy things. The flagship stores of YETI, Tecovas, are there plus Allen's Boots which is kind of a modern classic.

I don't know how you feel about alcohol but there are a lot of bars and breweries. I like to go to Hold Out brewing and then walk down the street to Waterloo Records, which is Austin's signature record store. Austin is also big for kayaking and stand up paddle boarding from a couple of different rowing docks. Tourists go to Oasis for the views, but the food is not good and it's way out of the way.

Oddly, I have never really done Austin touristy in the last 10 years. but that's where I would start.

 

Thanks. I'm staying down the street from La Barbecue on Cesar Chavez/Congress so it looks like a quick ride. Are you saying it's better than Terry Black's? What do you recommend there?

How is the public transit? Should I bother with a week pass? Seems the buses are cheap at $1.25 per ride.

 

Terry Black's is run by a family member of the Black's family but it's not the original Black's line which made Lockhart famous.

I see busses all the time but public transit is kind of considered a joke in Austin.

 

Thanks for the record store rec. I am a collector and maybe you guys got something I need lol.

 

There are a bunch in Austin but that's the famous one.
