@Green_Tea My new car has the same the sellotape look on the left which is under the plastic protector. I have no reason to remove it as it prevents the screen surface being scratched. I have a wonderful soft cloth (non scratch) I bought in the states (Wisconsin) that I keep in the car to wipe these surfaces no marks yet on my central console.
The plastic by the footrest I have left on my new car but I noted when I photographed yours there was no plastic by the footrest, but then you had the aluminum pedals.
Hope that helps I suggest you just leave it. I am sure it is meant to be there as protection otherwise why did the OPC not rewove it?
Best,
Devon Racer.

I think that the screen protector is just for transit. I peeled mine off as I hate this sort of thing (I peel prices off bottles of ketchup &#128580 but the dealer left it on as a lot of folk prefer to keep them.

By way of balance, I hate the thought of PPF and have not even got as far as a ceramic coat so I am firmly in the keep it forever patina clan.

After we meet for breakfast at Porsche Naples, we can take our better halves to Outback! TBO, my wife is not fond of the aerokit but she loves a bloomin' onion, mate! Looks like I am finally picking my T up on Thursday - fingers crossed!

Oh yeah, finally…Wonderful news, so excited for you. I might have to spin by to see it. I live up the road about 15 mins north off Airport Pulling. It will be easy to spot, it will be the one with the big bow!

Yes we will meet and do breakfast to celebrate with the wives, and of course a bloomin’ onion as well. With or without an aero kit. 😁

Aerokit cars have an extra 25 hp from the factory... That's what I heard on the interweb...

Aerokits from the factory where you install the PORSCHE letters on it after the fact have 35 hp extra I hear... 😉

How did that happen? I hope that doesnt happen to me .. Ordered a Ferrari F8 once and the factory cancelled it but they eventually gave me a spider allocation.
Anybody want a new F8 Spider nicely spec'd? Selling it when my T comes in.

I don’t know why it happened. They just denied my build about a week before it froze. If you have been accepted I’m sure you’ll be fine. Can’t wait to see it.

One of our Florida dealers mentioned there is a good probability of a recall on the lightweight glass. He offered no specifics on what glass parts might be recalled. I'm hoping that does not turn out to be the case. The thought of tearing out glass holds no appeal. On better news, the T sailed through its one year and 5K mile service. The car has been wonderful with no issues and impressive performance. Best to everyone, except the guys lucky enough to get Gulf Blue! My PTS was rejected.

Love the seats also...just wish they would offer a leather center section as the marks your ***/back leaves on them drives me nuts!
