ALso, want to increase the loudness of the sound and debating removing the stock muffler and go with the akrapovich slip on titanium exhaust and stage 2 tune.
Cousin…you’re back! Ha. How loud do u want it?Tinnitus loud? That’s a medical term….fyi. Straight pipe it! Actually, I str8 piped mine but it’s just slightly louder….even with valves open….Porsche actuators at work. I like driving in Sports Plus mode now….the burbles it makes. I’ve heard the akrapovich slip on in person. It’s pretty loud but sounds sweet. Have u thought about stage 4? Heard it does 600+ WHP.

Does anyone know if there's an aftermarket or OEM kit to replace the aerokit brake light with one similar to the exclusive design taillight? Not a big fan of how it looks right now....

One of UK’s renowned car mags has finally reviewed the T.
Some interesting comments…

No OEM option now. Best bet might be to apply tail light tint.

just tint . Idk I think the red on chalk gives it a nice look . Big fan of it on my chalk T with aero but I can see your concern , you went with the exclusive tails where I didn’t and you also did black aero where I kept it body color. I def see where a clear 3rd brake light would be ideal for you .

Centre console wrapped in matte black PPF. The hated shiny piano black is gone.
No more finger prints or dust visible.

That looks really good! Did you also cover the dash and door trims as well to have all the black trim in the matte finish?

And we got the same key fob. That gold Crest is ridiculously shiny. Since u don’t like shiny, maybe you’ll matte that out also…

WOW! I'm blown away by how good that looks! It's still translucent enough to allow the lights for HVAC to come through? wow.
I'm still curious as to what clear PPF would look like. I kinda like the shiny look. I just don't want scratches and fingerprints.

Wasn’t needed as I have them in GT Silver.

My PPF guy could do both gloss or matte, so I’m guessing they all can.
Best £50 ($60) I’ve ever spent!

Perhaps a little glossier than without PPF. Zero scratches or fingerprints. I like gloss too.
