Thanks. I had the dealer do it on my first car when it was delivered to the dealership after European delivery. But all my European Delivery pictures had the ugly orange side markers. So the next European delivery, I bought some from suncoast and brought them with me and changed them in the hotel parking lot. (note avatar) Doing the same thing with my GT3. I hate those orange ones!

Good thinking - did you put the ambers back on when returning the car to the factory? I know Porsche says they want the car returned without any changes (but not sure if they’d notice)

I left the clear side markers on for shipment back to the states and did not have any issues. I knew that the contract I signed stated that I was not allowed to modify the car while doing European delivery and of course, this is technically a modification outside of US regulatory standards. I was worried about it so I called my dealership and PCNA and asked them if this would be a problem. They both said no. Maybe if I asked today, I would get a different answer. I did leave the ambers behindthe seat in case something came up, I could have somebody swap them back. Nobody even probably looked or noticed.

From the language in the ED form, it appeared they are most concerned about exhaust issues. I plan to switch mine out too.

Are the side markers on all of the 992s the same? Nothing unique about the GT3?

Yeah, Agate does that depending on the lighting. Here is a photo of my prior Agate 4S in overcast lighting where the brown is showing up.

According to Suncoast, they are......you can already order them off their web site. Before I buy them, I am going to check part numbers with my local dealership parts department.

Has anyone with their car on the Felicity Ace gotten an update? My SA called to say that the ship was being held out of port for various delays. My delivery (Denver, to be offloaded in Houston via Baltimore) has been pushed back from 8/24 to 9/17 as a result. Hoping this can get moved up again if they can make it to port.
