thanks. It looks amazing on the airbag, but a little too much for me at this time. Thanks for the offer.

Only Porsche can charge extra for taking things off. Want a badge with no color, that's extra. Want rear model designation delete, that's extra. Want colorless side markers, that's extra........

Got it - I had tried checking out, and it added $60+ in shipping (even though they say free shipping for $200+ purchases). Maybe it would've been removed if I went further in the checkout process but that's what pushed me away. Hopefully others have a better outcome than I did.

Well the monochrome wheel hub centers are cheaper than the color ones, but of course going back to monochrome turbonite will be even more! I'm sticking to color...!

Well if you think about it, it makes sense. Any change whether it is a deletion or a certain color change requires a change to the standard build orders for the assembly line. In some cases it may mean having someone make the physical change after the car is assembled if that particular operation was normally performed by a robot and the robot can not be easily be reprogrammed for the change in material.

On my Dakar today (still only a week old) I added clear side marker lights, Turbonite badge/emblem (which is in the new style w/ the honeycomb; I dig it) - also got the Mudflaps but gonna put those on tomorrow. Lastly added wind buffers by the side mirrors - each of those took a few seconds to install, Mudflaps will take a bit but not too long.

Put in some cushions to hopefully stop any door dings in the home garage.

Debating if I should swap out carbon seats for something more comfy for touring vs track.

Also trying to decide which of these to get for along the sides.

How come Suncoast is $60 more? Are they similar quality?

Does anybody have the part numbers for the Turbonite hood crest and Turbonite airbag cover? Are the airbag covers fairly easy to swap?
