I'm not sure if the carpet was pre-cut, this is where the fire extinguisher would go. not sure if there are two options for the fire extinguisher tbh.
I thought it would be under the passenger seat. and not mounted to the floor. I have to cut the floormat as it doesn't sit with the extinguisher in place.

I believe if your order both the LWB's and the Storage Package the factory does not install the storage net in the passenger footwell. I have both and can see the cutout where the storage net would be located.

I ordered my gt3 with the lwb and storage package and it has this same cutout but no net since I got the lwb I'm guessing.

Lift it up ! I believe you will find it to be access to VIN.

I ordered my GT3 with the LWB seats and did not option the Storage Package. I still have the cutout in the front passenger footwell.

It does. It is in the wrong place.

That looks like a mistake -- patch job unless anyone else has that. I would say not acceptable.

I specced the LWB and storage net and got the same cutout. For some reason Porsche lets you mark both but there's a note (found after the car arrived) that says net is not possible with LWB. Not sure if that's the reason for the cut carpet, but it's normal. Just one of those GT3 things.

Mine has this and it doesn't look great. Wondering if there's anything I can do to cover it up.

Separately, which floor mats do you have? Love the stitching.
