On the next meet take a look at my RS which is daily driven 200 miles/day 5 days a week. I'm not an expert in that I am not a trained professional. With a little dedication, hard work you can drive a pretty car lol daily and I know it's hard to believe it actually becomes easier to keep clean. I got some advice by a dude shining up his Harley while I was in S. Korea, and it went something like "How someone takes care of their belongings (cars, clothes, house, etc..)is probably a direct reflection on how they wipe their own ass". A bit extreme lol and I had to do a double take when he put like that. And my version is the family friendly version. It would be cool to set up a meet if anybody is even interested. I've been to a couple Toyota dealership detailing seminars back east when I used to own a tC and was a member of the local Scikotics club and that's where I picked up some of the knowledge that I have now. Or if you have any questions feel free to text 760-507-9396. Just throw in the text you own a twin so I can identify and not ignore lol.

Do you like dumplings?
I guess we can do this when the weather isn't as crazy humid/hot.

I get clay bar kits every couple months from Amazon (subscription) I think I have some extra I'm down.

@swarb or any other photographer, we should consider taking shots of everyone with their cars at the next meet! Kind of like a profile shot. Easier for us to put faces to our cars!

Just a thought...

Anyone know when the eagle rock meet is? I'm free today and am thinking about it if it's not too late

I'm fairly close to you. La puente / West Covina area if you want you can borrow it. It's a cheap harbor freight one but gets the job done.

This is a cool idea!
Can the girls not show their faces though? Like turn their backs or something.. Some creepers be creepin' on the forum if you catch my drift.
