Good stuff Mariano. If all goes according to plan, I'll have 3-4 boxes of goodies arriving on Thursday-Friday. Don't think I'll have time to do my calipers though, sadly.

Looks like we'll stick with McDonald's unless someone has serious reservations about it. Feel free to chime in people.

^^ How much do I have to pay you to paint my calipers Pirooz? Everything else that needs to go in on Thursday/Friday is so basic (visors, LEDs, lugs, rear canards) even I can do it.

Damm Brian, you're on the time crunch too. My Vertex kit won't be here till next week and won't be able to have the trunk spoiler on if I want to mold it. Picking up the car tommorrow from the alarm shop and getting the roof spoiler on Thurs. Busy busy!!!

How bout meeting @ hooters in dublin? Its right off 580 close to 680 @ 7944 dublin blvd. Their lot should be empty since its that early in the morning.

Agreed. Perhaps we should bump meeting up to 7:00am and roll out 7:30am?? What do you think Brian?

Yup, down to the wire. I think my visors and some minor CF details won't arrive in time. Oh well, there's always EOS. Onward and upward!

I'll have to coordinate with the other two caravan leaders (Sacto & Stockton) since our roll out time is based on their arrival time. We don't have to be there at 8:00am, so maybe it's not an issue. Will keep everyone posted.

I'll do some scouting on my way home tonight (check parking lot size, steep driveways, etc.). I just realized this Hooters existed (which is like 5 minutes from my house) yesterday haha.

hmmm... for Hooters, all folks from Sac, Stockton will have to drive slightly longer North East route pass highway 580, in that case, I like McDonalds better. But either one is fine to me. How about the plaza that has the theater and best buy? It has bigger parking space

brociouz

iTrader: (65)

Yeah, I was considering that location too. I will check it out in tonight's scouting report.

Good point about Hooters, I just realized it is in fact one exit passed the 580-680 interchange, so that's probably a dealbreaker.

Keep us updated!

I'll be installing my sway bars this afternoon. It's been sitting in the garage since January 2009. Talk about procrastinating!

Hey guys, after doing my advance work I'm going to make the executive decision to change our meetup location to the parking lot outside Macaroni Grille in Dublin - 4805 Hacienda Drive, Dublin, CA 94568-7597. It's in the same complex and shares its gigantic parking lot with Regal Cinemas. First post updated with a map.

Reasons for the change:
1. Slightly more convenient location (closer to the 580-680 interchange without causing a detour for the Sacto/Stockton people)
2. This location has NO vertically angled turn-ins whatsoever, something slammed people will appreciate. There ARE some mild speedbumps, but there's a way to drive around them.
3. This place has a ridiculously large parking lot and is arguably easier to find since many people are familiar with Regal Cinemas and it has an easily identifiable red glowing structure.

Hope this works for everyone.
