Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

Why is it always weekends I cannot attend . I'll make it to one of these someday.

 

Havnt seen ya in a while dude! Hope all is well and we will get you out there one of these days!

 

so would Bee caves be the Alaska of Austin then? I think Lakeway fits as Commifornia

 

Thanks for the offers but I think we figured something out for next week

 

Ok cool if it falls thru I’m here.

 

Work is slamming. Seriously cutting into my TW time.

On the plus side, I was just notified that I'm #1 on a short list for a new management position (and huge promotion).

On the minus side, that will really cut in to my TW time.

 

I think the good outweighs the bad in that situation. Will keep my fingers crossed for ya Cap!

 

Thanks brother! Had a lot going on recently unfortunately. Went to see some family and friends last weekend in North Carolina and had to move into a new apartment in early May. Definitely trying to meet up with a few of you sometime soon!

 

Not a problem. Also we are going to hidden falls July 22nd if you're interested. Just a day trip. Leaving here at 5am stopping to get breakfast outside Austin then meeting at the park around 9am. Wheel a while then head in for lunch. Back to a couple more trails before heading home.

 

Can't make this one. Father's Day > C&C

 

How big of an item?

 

So do you have camp lights on the side with the awning like you do the drivers side? If you do, I'd be interested in seeing a pic of that.. been struggling with how I want to do that on mine.

 

All good Mark, you and your family enjoy the time together!

I've still got the 'detail day' in the back of my mind and thinking we can do a demonstration on somebody's truck.

Will have to cool off a bit, let's work together and talk about some deets.

 

You bet Chad! I've been thinking about it too. I just got a new shipment of detail pads and ordered more compound for my personal vehicles. I think a demonstration would be great. What i've done in the past is a 50/50 panel by placing a piece of painter's tape directly down the middle of the panel. Correct and polish one side and then peal the tape off. It shows how much different it looks after some love.

Here is an example from a customer's M5 I did a full correction on. He photo-documented the entire process while I worked.



This is the 50/50 panel. Look closely and you'll see the difference.


Finished product.

 

WOW!!!
​

That's what I'm talking about. I would love to learn these things from you and I'm sure many others would as well!

 

Man. I am so on the fence about regearing before the July trip. But thats a regear, Ill need a shell, and a platform to sleep in.

What else would I need for that trip? @riz_atx

 

A set of shocks but I think we got it worked out

 

K, let me know

 

sweet find, wish i got an extended cab
