https://instagram.com/forddonald has Oslo on Spyder Classic. Personally, it's too much with a bright blue exterior.

Agreed. I went all black interior.

GT silver looks so much better in person than pics.
Agree 100%

My wife convinced me not to get red belts because of how red looks against the blue paint. I got SB belts and love it. The exception was the red calipers since they are surrounded by my all black rims. I'm happy.

It has been about six months but it sat for a while. I don't know if I can find it.

This has probably been asked before so I apologize if I missed it but does anyone have the painted key covers for our key fobs in shark blue? Does it actually exist for our style key? I can’t for the life of me find the part number for it

Short answer is that they do not exist from Porsche.

I have 12 days until my lock for my 4RS. Would I delay things making a change to shark blue keys so close to lock?

It did for me actually (changed only the key option maybe 2 weeks out) but probably just a coincidence. Congratulations on the RS!

They exist if you spec them with your order, just not yet as a part available from Porsche part distributors

Ahhhh. Gotcha. I have SB with yellow stitching and belts and gauges. My sales guy gave me a yellow one as a gift. So I guess he lucked out in that regard…
