Texas Meet

We doing one this year? I was thinking Sunday... sometime October/November? Not near Thanksgiving or Christmas (or during exams). Preferrably Austin because it is pretty much the central location of Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas.

It'd have to be on a Sunday for me to have any chance. I'd have to come down Saturday after work & leave Sunday night to get back for work.

I would recommend we all shoot for the 1st Sunday in December, as Cars & Coffee Austin will hold their monthly meet. Each month is a different theme, like German, British, US and more. December's theme is Far East, so great chance for us to all show up together and make a good impression.

The event is held in Leander in the main town square. Groups and Clubs can park together and these are very well attended and very organized. I was going to wait on posting this but since you're taking suggestions, this would be a good one to consider. More info here

^yeah good scenery. We could go there after (after lunch aswell)

Sunday is the best day because most people are off.

Beginning of November would have a lot better weather. Beginning of December is a problem for students.

Yea, beginning of December could cause a problem for me but I'll just try to study my butt off before hand and afterwards. Plus, this meet would give me motivation to detail my car lol.

Put X X X in between the link.

I did it myself but with my cousin's fender roller. I'm not close to him so I can't help you there lol. Unless you have a fender roller then I can help

Unless you plan to roll fenders on more than 1 car, you can likely find a shop to roll them for less than that. Not sure on TL's...would you roll the fronts too? On my CL, I only rolled the rear fenders and the shop did it for $50 total and it took less than an hour to complete both rear fenders.

Check out http://www.rollyourfender.com/

The guy that runs it is in Dallas, so you wouldn't have to mess with shipping back and forth, maybe he'll get you a better deal than what's advertised. I've already rolled mine, but post something in the DFW thread to see if anyone else is interested in rolling theirs. Split the cost and get multiple cars done at the same time.
