Yes, it's at the Oasis and the British invasion is happening this week. It's going to be crowded. I suggest getting there at around 9:30 am. I'll be there! If we get there around 9:30 we'll be able to park in our own section and won't be thrown all over the place.

It's just a gathering of a lot of cars to walk around and look at. Sometimes there's a mobile dyno there that shows up. It's just a fun meet to get out and see a lot of different cars.

Anyone here have their car treated with Opti-coat? If so, who'd you take it to? Just picked up a new brz and want to keep it looking awesome.

I'm also considering a clear bra, so any suggestions are welcome. I'm in NW Austin but I'll happily drive for a job well done.

Good detailers in Austin? Due to some water spots and swirls on my black FRS, I need some paint correction work. Anyone know of a good detailer in town? I live in Bastrop, but can drive to Austin for the work, and have a house + driveway I could use for a mobile service if necessary.

A place that offers an Opti-coat service would also be nice, as I am considering getting that done as well.


Thanks in advance.

I've had xpert auto detailers recommended to me by a body shop. I haven't used them though because I like to detail my own cars. I saw on their website they do opti-coat.

Was told an initial estimate of August. based on the experience of others I am assuming it might be faster than that.
Ordered it 4/25, got the car yesterday, just a couple of days shy of three months.

The lack of pictures from the Oasis C&C is disturbing...

I don't take many pictures due to the fact I go every month. I'll try to take more in August.

Just an update to my previous question about where to have Opti-Coat and clear bra done:

Per a suggestion from a previous poster in this thread, I ended up going down to Jay's Detail in San Antonio for clear bra, Opti-Coat treatment, and window tint. Man am I glad I did! Jay was great to work with and delivered exactly as promised (and more!) at an extremely reasonable price. I know that not everyone can afford to go down to San Antonio for a couple days to allow enough time for the Opti-Coat to cure, but if you can, I highly recommend Jay @ JaysDetail.com.

And if you're still a skeptic after reading all this, check out all the Ferraris that he has detailed on both his Facebook page and his website.

Sorry for the overexposed cell phone pics...

Hey guys, I just got my Pearl White BRZ from Georgetown Subaru at the beginning of June! Loving the car so far! Lately I've been seeing a whole lot of FRS' around town, but haven't come across any BRZ's yet. Where are y'all at!?

I drive around central Austin every Wednesday-Friday. Look for the shark fin and you'll know it's me.
