Toyo Tires Oktoberfest in Big Bear, Ca

Saturday morning I drove out to Big Bear Lake for the Toyo Tires Oktoberfest. Golden Shine, our premium car care line, was one of the sponsors of the event, so an associate and I went to the Snow Valley Resort to demonstrate some products at the show.

In the morning all the attendees had to register for the event. The show attracted a lot of VW and Audi owners from all over the west coast.

Bernie, the Event Coordinator and owner of the GTI above, put together a great event. There was a variety of unique games in the afternoon, including the vehicle limbo contests.


Everyone gathered around for the Switch Stance competition, where teammates had to raise and lower their air ride to the perfect ride height in the fastest time possible. The winner took home a nice prize from Accuair.



Love Twinkies? A few brave attendees entered the Twinkie eating contest.

The competitors were doing everything they could to win the limbo contest. Things started to get interesting and entertaining during the static limbo contest. In the static limbo contest air ride was not allowed, so lowered car owners had to get creative, and volunteer friends, to get their cars even lower.


This VW had at least 13 people piled in it. Eww.

Anyway, California Car Cover and Golden Shine has a great time at the event and we look forward to support more Volkswagen and Audi events in the future. Thanks to everyone at dub-nation for having us out to the show.

Fall Parts Exchange and Volkswagen Show

Saturday, September 17th was the 3rd Annual Fall Parts Exchange and Parking Lot Sale at California Car Cover. We had a dozen local customers and friends show up to swap parts and collectibles. It was a great event and mark your calendar for our spring event sometime in May. Our website will post the scheduled date online.
During the event, one of our Golden Shine team members was on hand demonstrating our Golden Shine Car Care Products.


There were plenty of wheels, tires, bumpers, mirrors and much more on hand at the show. It was a great place to find a deal on some diecast cars. I even picked up a few t-shirts from a vendor.
Even though it was a parking lot sale and parts exchange there were a handful of classic cars in our parking lot all morning. Here are just a few of them I could snap photos of while working.



The California Car Cover canopies were packed with seasonal merchandise and discontinued products. It was a great time to find a deal on just about anything in our warehouse. We had 12 pallets of merchandise out for sale. We only host this event twice a year, so we really bring out the merchandise and the savings.




As soon as the sun came out, USA Tacos served up tasty tacos and tortas for customers. While the parking lot sale was winding down, the Golden Shine VW Car Show was just starting.
A group of local Volkswagen and Audi enthusiasts came to hang out at California Car Cover on Saturday afternoon. It was an opportunity for us to meet some new customers and interact with the VW crowd. Golden Shine is a car care sponsor of the upcoming Oktoberfest car show in Big Bear, so it was a chance for locals to sign up for the show and check out the products.








Guests had the chance to sign up for the Oktoberfest event which will be in Big Bear on October 6th-8th. More details on the event can be found on Facebook.

Brandon, from the Golden Shine team, did product demonstrations for the attendees.
The group practiced the Air Ride competitions in preparation for Oktoberfest.

Thanks to everyone from Oktoberfest for coming out to support the event. We will see all of you at the fun in Big Bear in a few weeks. If you cannot make it up there I will post coverage of the event on here after the show.
