    Thumbs up Anyone up for a Eastlake/Chula Vista bimmer get together?

    i think someone set something up like this 2 yrs ago and I missed it cause i had to go overseas. i was thinking of setting one up to make up for the one i missed.

    nothing fancy, just bimmerheads meet and greet for an hour or two in the evening. plus, i'd like to meet other bimmer folks in my area... i see them driving, never know who they are...

    TIME: Feb 9th, Friday @ 6:00PM

    LOCATION: Parking lot between Walmart and Chic-Fil-A. (There's only one Chic-Fil-A in Chula Vista) Maybe we'll grab some food there or somewhere nearby.

    Anyone up for it? ... and we can start a list:

    The kohls parking lot worked out pretty well for us out on H-Street.

    Lots of parking and not many cars trying to get through.

    You can count me in.

    Hey guys,.. I knew there were bimmerforum folks in my 'hood... cool. what do you think about the parking lot between Chic-Fil-A and Walmart? It's wide open and there's nice lighting for an evening meet.

    Hmmm.. that depends on your definition of "good" ... how about Rubios? There's a Rubios near that Chic-Fil-A mentioned above... next to the Pick-Up Stix on the other side.

    That sounds fine, when I think about it, its true about the availability. Its always open!!

    Oh, and about the tacos, we can cruise over to "tacos el gordo" on H Street right off the 5; TRUE tacos.

    When should we get this going?

    I totally agree... El Gordo is awesome stuff... but that drive way will cost me $500 to repaint my front bumper. I only dare enter El Gordo in an SUV.

    As for when we'll do this... I think today is a bit short notice. I want to let the list grow a little more... how about Feb 9th? Around 6PM-ish so that people going out that night can still leave around 8ish to go to where ever they are going.

    Are you set on mexican food? 'cause personally i love the chicken at Chic-Fil-A. But as far as mexican food goes:

    1. Hector's seafood - what use to be wanna taco. it's now a nice sit-in restaurant

    2. the mexican food place by the exxon station near VONS on Telegraph Canyon. I can never remember the name, but the food is good. again, it's a sit-down place.

    3. Rubios! Do people consider that mexican food?

    Hey, so are the BavAuto springs re-branded H&R? Just curious... I installed H&R sport springs on my Z3... and I feel it sits too low.

    I'm in. I prefer a night meet too, but whatever you guys want. If so, however, we need decent lighting.

    They sit alittle higher than the H&R's. I had previously bought H&R Sports but decided against it when I saw another members E36 with 18's and the sports on. It sat waaaaaaaay too low.

    On food, im fine with anything. Its not like we have to hold each other's hands here and skip into the nearest taco shop. We can all grub on whatever.

    Hey... can't help with the Wii... i barely play video games even though I have a PS2. I probably won't get a PS3 until PS4 is out.... that's how "behind" i am with video games.

    As for the M5 bumper... I don't know much about them regarding fit and what not. But, if you'd like to take a look at a BMW salvage yard, check out www.autobahnparts.com. They are in El Cajon.

    thanks!

    also, the 9th works perfect for me!

    any chance everyone would be down to try and make this a monthly thing, depending on how the 9th goes?

    and please introduce yourselves. ive been to small meets where everyone is in small groups and just "dog" you when you show up. then again, thats when i used to check out those ricer boy meets! :X
