@BillBoss how about you?
Same here. My delivery got pushed back from 04/13 to 05/03 though. I might reach out to my SA. If only they can add bucket seats for me since it is stuck in the factory!

Finally got status and production photos after long silence on TYD. Can any of the pro's here tell if I got the LWBS based on this pic? (And time to order those Ed's Bolsters?)

I could be wrong, but based on the seatbelt routing, it sure looks like buckets.

What date did your end of production move to?
I'm assuming it is a part that we are waiting on to complete production...

Good morning Everyone.

Like many I received my production photos.

Same as a few have posted. I optioned from spray nozzles to be color matched (Chalk) and they are black. If its delivered with black I wont be paying for that $300 option.

Unfortunately Dunlop tires for me. I guess ill rationalize it as Michelin is anti-American due to Vietnam war.

Interesting seeing that people are getting carbon buckets. My freeze date was 2/14 and SA told me "no chance" for carbon buckets, I constantly bugged him about it. That was another disappointment...

Not sure why you would even suggest this, the Dunlop Maxx Race 2 tires are an excellent tire. You have personal experience with them that says otherwise?

I can "Personally" see Michelin are preferred.

I didn't say anything in regards to performance. It is pretty obvious what everyone is hoping for.

^^ I think the painted spray nozzles get added later with other trim pieces in final production. If you look through all the production pics on here - I don't think I've seen one with painted nozzles... so not to worry.
BTW - did your car's production end date get moved to 4/4 as well?

Roger, thanks for the information!

Negative on my end in regards to production end date.

"05 - The manufacturing process is complete" still shows today (3/16/2023)

Delivery date has bounced around the last few weeks: 5/3 then 5/8, now 5/7

Got it.
My "Manufacturing Process Complete" date sat at the original 3/13 for a few days past that date before being pushed out to 4/4.
Let us know if yours gets pushed out too... I'm curious if it's an optioned part that myself and BillBoss are waiting on, or if it's a standard part that everyone will be affected by... assuming that the delay is due to a missing part.
