Or better yet, both...that is the way mine will be albeit with Satin Black Soul tips. I always paint the front radiators, rear mufflers and tip hardware flat Black.

Finally completed full PPF and enjoyed a short drive in the canyons. Can't wait to get thru break-in and start exploring the car's capability

Surprisingly no - north end of GTA. But I have done a great route through the Musokas last fall - just brilliant.

Today was German Car Day at https://exoticsat.com/. The show officially goes from 9a til 11a and I showed up at approx 8:30a and there was a line for show cars. Didn't get a spot til almost 9a and almost all the spots were taken by that time. I don't know how many total cars they take, but there are several parts of the mall that are used including a big part of the actual parking lot and was packed. Cars backed over parking spots and two lines of cars in the middle. This is a regular occurring event so didn't see anything I hadn't seen previously. One corner had the "real" exotics made up of Ferraris, Lambos, and Mclarens. A bunch of classic cars always show up. Too many "run of the mill" BMWs and 911, in my opinion. Did see a Weissach GT2RS amongst many GT3RS's (next to a Speedster) which was pretty cool. For this thread, a couple of snaps of my car

@Pokerhobo Hello again. Pretty car. Are those platinum wheels? They look very "light" in these pics.

Yes, I have the platinum wheels which is more of a gunmetal color. For me, silver is too bright, and wanted a bit of contrast to black wheels.

Does anyone have any pics, or has chosen the "Painted Climate Control" option for the interior? I'm wanting to do the painted exterior color on the interior, and I think that it would look a bit weird if only part of the center console was painted and the upper part where the climate buttons is are not painted from a couple of the interiors that I saw that were only half painted.(default matte black). Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas on this option? I attempted to search, but I couldn't see that someone had asked about this specifically...I'll keep poking around, but I know there are a ton of posts out there that might include it. Thanks!
