Purchased my car used and it came with satin black wheels. Too many colors for me so I did exactly what you mentioned. I was also considering the Carrera T stickers in black.

It’s more about enjoying the driving experience to its fullest. Listening to the engine is better soundtrack than anything I can play over the radio.

As for the wart, well... i just don’t care for it.

I can always put them back 👍

I am interested in deleting the wart too. Where did you buy the part that will go in it’s place? I’ll be following your project.

Ordered from the dealer. I believe it was like $90. Sport chrono is standard on the T and the chrono clock was an option so should be able deal with any faults/issues through coding. Happy to let you know how it works out

Thank you for the response and any advice once you have completed the swap. I like the clean look. The wart is a dust collector. Though I look at it for the time.

Does your detailer have the computer to match/make the OEM T SIDE STRIP in speed yellow.
Thanks

@egrossman @Guaji if either of you would like to get rid of your sport chrono cover (just the cover, not the gauge) let me know. I am thinking of replacing my non sport chrono panel with one to place a boost/methanol gauge in (although I dont like the look of the "wart") I cant seem to find another suitable place to mount a gauge that wont look out of place.

Yep Makes sense and it can be ordered separately.
