Yeah the exposed carbon wing is different as standard equip for road car.

Maybe they did a mash up of Clubsport and street car. To keep a bit of mystery.

PPF and it'll be fine. It's in front of that rear/side air intake that'll get beat up more.

I think it's a mash up because I could have sworn that I saw the cage in one of the shots but good catch on the airbag.

Thats because its a German car where a half cage is legal as an OEM option.

There was a cage. Perhaps it’s the Euro option - it did have clear side markers.

I just noticed/wondered that.

But I think the noise is it will be a ‘new yellow’.

California Yellow.

Good spot. Looks a bit like the Akrapovic tips. No doubt will be a Ti back box in typical RS fashion.
