any interior shots? Your build is very close to mine on the outside. Curious to see what your selections were on the inside.

You can buy them from Suncoast, or tell your SA to outfit your car correctly and let the dealer pay. They likely have them in stock.

Based on itguy’s avatar, it seems his (or her) car has a pdk so it’s not like mine. I got my clear side markers from the dealer. Really easy to install.

Flat White > CWM all day baby. I can't stand that blue hue CWM has and flat white is a brighter white in my opinion.

I was on the fence about CWM choice due to the blue tinge myself, however I can say with certainty that it only takes on blueness in rare instances. To my eye at least, in person the blueish that we know is there just crisps up the presentation but doesn’t come across with even a hint of blue most of the time. I think you’d be hard pressed to say the flat white is brighter than CWM if you see both paints side by side.

My deviated stitching can beat up your deviated stitching.

Haha, i went through that phase after ordering white where i was second guessing myself back and forth. Every single Porsche that drove by for some reason had metallic white and I felt like I was the only person in the world ordering flat white.

It turned out great with flat white and I really like the colour when it is clean. At the showroom though, parked beside a metallic white, metallic does POP more because it is brighter / lighter under certain lighting.

First world problems for sure.
