I am in/around LA for the week of 19th September - 26th September :)
I am down for that, believe we are doing a couple meets that week, going to Big Boy on 19th and I think a couple days later there is a Krispy Kreme meet on.... idk.
I heard big boy meets have gone downhill the past couple years but regardless I am going for the food! if some cool cars turn up that's just a bonus! also the Krispy Kreme meets get kinda rowdy it seems but still, I am mainly going for the donuts!

Be patient
I own an 88, have had it for just under a year so far. When I first bought it, I was telling everyone, "yeah, this is the crossover year - supposed to be pretty easy to get the plastic bumpers on here so I'll do it ASAP."
Needless to say, I didn't get around to it.
Now I like the diving boards.
So... you may surprise yourself. After a while, they grew on me to the point where I have no desire to tuck them/swap to plastic bumpers.
I'd recommend doing all the other exterior/ride-height stuff you've talked about first, THEN wait a couple more months, THEN make a decision regarding the bumpers. Just my $0.02!
Cheers, and congrats on the great daily and everything you've done already.

My advice to folks who are thinking about tucking their diving boards is if that's the look you want, you should have bought a late model. I mean come on... "Make diving boards great again" is in the thread title.
Car is looking good so far!
