Default WP hood and what to do

Have a WP car that shipped with the wrong hood (came painted black) and trying to figure out what to do with it once the new one (whenever that maybe...) shows up. More curious to see what others are doing. Wall art, sell it, demo surface to practice detailing skills (just kidding). Thanks.

My understanding is yes or that’s what I’ve been told. Fingers crossed.

I would have some art work done on it and hang it in my garage

How much would you sell it for? Would like a black hood for a gt3 but not sure if I want to buy an oem painted one or just wrap it.

I wouldn't mind one of those non WP steering wheels, if anyone ends up with an extra.

To slightly hijack the thread, have you heard anything from porsche about your hood. They promised me mine by the end of November and now they are giving my dealership the run around

My plan is to put mine on my home office wall - maybe add the GT2 RS stripes on the hood so it's not quite so green :-)

I am told we are now looking at sometime in the 1st quarter for the exposed carbon hoods and the steering wheels covers. This news was from early December.
