Default Silver GT4 in Toronto delivery - Minor build thread

Ordered the car in October and sales rep said I'd be looking at a spring delivery. Car arrived late May - between the pandemic, chip shortage, engine recall its a minor miracle it came at the originally anticipated time. I count myself lucky!

Nice spec! Fellow Canadian here waiting for my GT4 to get here (should be early July). Do you like the Carbonio no drill plate? Was it easy to install?

I got them from Design Stuff Online in the UK. Some other members have purchased stuff from them:

Short answer is yes I like it and yes its easy to install. I like the look as its centered so keeps symmetry (unlike a tow hook mount) and since it goes where the factory mount would go it covers up the 2 dimples on the bumper.

Longer back story is, I ordered their original no drill GT4 plate (it clips below the front spoiler). They made a mistake in shipping and sent me one for a Spyder which did not fit so I reached out to them the same day they were launching their new design which sticks below the bumper. They are also based in Toronto so one of the owners told me to come by and I could see their new design and either go with that or get the correct older one. I went with the newer as I felt it looked better + did not reduce ground clearance. I was a little hesitant due to the fact it just sticks on with 3M tape but the owner said they were also hesitant about using tape but were comfortable after discussing with 3M + they did their own testing and it has held up ok. My car is actually the one on their website as they offered to install it while I was there (I have not affiliation with them and paid full price for the mount).

Nice and where you get the plate frame and screw? I am going to get the no drill mount for sure.
