The latest AP quote has it as CXX. So you can elect not to do the wing.

It was around $2200 for the CXX side and wing decals on my 2016 GT3RS so I'm trying to mentally prepare myself for what a painted stripe will cost. I'll be happy to save $2k not painting the wing stripe.

Every time AP prances around with the Theysis pts car, it's to sell CXX and PTS. It's just product placement to give people mew and innovative ideas of how to give Porsche more money.

Having said that, the cxx stripe on GT4rs feels like a must-have.

As long as the surface is smooth and clean, shouldn't be a problem.

hey Gazz (ex 1M owner in Perth??)

I know of many locals in Aus who do triple layer PPF on their CF parts on their Lambos, Ferraris and Mclarens, it’s the only way to protect those low front facing AND expensive parts.

Short answer is definitely yes.

MIssion R: As stunning as this car looks (and performs), the sound is a mega turn-off bordering on a deal-breaker IMO. Sounds pretty much like an RC car!

LoL on getting CXX anything.

CXX requests are DOA in the U.S.

And no, not just for the 4RS specifically.

What makes you say this? There are people receiving GT3 orders now with Cxx options.
