Yes the paint kept getting on the car and I had to keep a bottle of spray cleaner and a microfiber cloth nearby.

Maybe try using vinyls like red outs or just smoke it. That might be a little cheaper.

If anyone want to see the video of the model getting body painted - PM me for the link. I don't know how long it will stay on Youtube before it gets pulled.

I took all the pics myself. The photographer just provided the studio and the body painting.

Plus I got the roll of film he took at Treasure Island developed and only about 6-7 pictures from 36 exposures even came out at all.

Default Bay Area Mini Lexus Meets

To those that are new, the Mini Lexus Meets we have are located in:

Milpitas and Fremont.

Milpitas Location: In/Out Burgers off 880/237 (McCarthy Ranch) or Quicklys
Fremont Location: Bobar Cafe off Mission Blvd 680/880

Meet times has been pretty random in the past ranging from 6PM to as late as 11PM as a starting time.

Longest consecutive meet we had was i believe 7-8 Days straight.

We always have tons of fun and few photoshoots here and there.

So becuase the spur the last min thing has gotten old and more and more people are asking times and dates / we will discuss location and dates prior to meet.

If you want to be put on the Contact list, please PM me your name / # and any of the Fatal 5 will contact you in regards to meets. They will also be posted up here.

And for any pre-scheduled meets, I might buy drinks / food for all at those locations so we have a great time. (Non-Alchoholic of course to some of us not of age)

I hope to see you guys all at our future meets! the More the better, I think we have had a record of over 12 cars once?



Thanks to those that have shown up in the past:

-Aries
-Baoser
-Breed
-JDMTruong
-Kaaalvy
-Kickin8 (for trying =D)
-King-Pin
-LexAnt
-LMoney408
-This1b0y
-96dtm850

+ others i dont remember
i just wrote those on thetop of my head.. hahaa if i didnt add u i apologize.



Hey count me in on any future meetups after october. I'm in iraq right now, haha. keep me posted though!

You should consider painting that front license plate bracket white. It wouldn't stand out as much in the pics.
