I had the opportunity to visit the CG store today. This shop has been open for about 2 weeks but the guy that runs it was on vacation so he still has a lot of unpacking.

This shop is no where near as large as their warehouse so only the essential inventory is kept here.

CJ, the guy who runs the place is a great guy. He is very passionate about detailing and he said theres a lot more stuff thats still yet to be unpacked. We chatted for quite a while and he said their development dept has quite a bit of product they are still testing and should be released soon. :props:

They also hold detailing clinics every other weekend and the other weekends they hold car meets. Overall great guys.


Heres a few pics of the new shop....

Cool, where exactly are they located? Are the prices the same as AG's or their warehouse?

1100 block of Harbor, Santa Ana. They are Adding products to the inventory slowly, but if there is anything you need from LA, they can have it sent down to OC. Yes, they will give you the Internet price.

There's a store in San Diego that's about the same size. Has plenty of goodies! Wayne is a great guy to deal with.

The LA store is my favorite though! You get so many freebies!

I didnt really pay much attention to prices, I think the guy gave me 10% off though.

The SD store is gone, at least thats what the sales guy told me :(

Those bottles are not real, they're display replicas.

Ok, so what's the point of having a replica with a backwards label? I guess I'll just chalk this up to another thing that I don't understand about CG.

Maybe they just got it that way? I know CG can be scatter brained but its just a simple decoration! :-)

Looks like a nice little store. Set up sorta how CG has their warehouse setup.

Looks like a nice place to stock up on their products. I see that their inglewood store is close by me. I will have to swing by one of these days and check it out.

Swing by, it's about 45 mins for me cos of morning traffic. But was really taken care of.
