California August 20 - 25

Hello,

I will be in California; Los Angeles, Hollywood, & Long Beach area on August 20 to August 25.

I am wondering what are the best places to visit? Any car shows happening? Car meets? Import Nights?

Any shops that sell cheap parts? I can ship to my USA address down in Bellingham if the part is big .

Please advise

I appreciate all your help!

I can't imagine there being any car meets in California Aug 20-25, more likely to find some in Burnaby or Richmond.

As for cheap parts try:
North Hollywood Auto Parts
5535 Lankershim Blvd
North Hollywood, CA 91601
United States


5 star rating on google, good source for wiper blades apparently

There's always a car meet to go to in LA. When I was there, I hit up a small meet hosted by a crew called FittedTho. It was on a Monday night iirc, in Ontario, about 45 minutes from Long Beach.

If you have Instagram, follow pages like lowerstandards, royalorigin and carsxhype for meet details.

Any more? Cheapest coolest place to see. Eat. Buy. Any events during these days? I don't want the typical Disneyland. Six flags. Universal studios.
