I would suggest getting the MTM foam cannon. It puts out some seriously thick foam.

Interesting to see that 90%+ have chosen the standard GTS Center Lock wheels. I went back and forth on this and literally changed my build twice (to RS then back to CL/TurboS). I don't want to deal with the hassle of CL especially during longer road trips, but I like the look better and the fact that they are forged is what swayed me. Hopefully it's a non-issue, but just wanted to say that it's nice to see so many optioning the CL Forged (standard) ones here.
I hear people say this, but I question what people are planning to do if they are on a trip that would be different for CL vs the RS rims?
Is the thought that they will change their own tire on the side of the road if they need to with RS?
I’m truly asking what the thinking is since to me is seems like it’s getting a ride on a flatbed regardless of the rim choice. It’s not like you have a spare tire along either way.
Now if the argument was about not wanting to deal with CL at home l, that makes more sense, but I don’t get the roadtrip anxiety.

I agree with you. I think it's unfounded anxiety (which probably most anxiety is). My dealership's general manager made the same point to me that you just did and it made sense to me. I think the extreme scenario is that I'm hours away from a Porsche dealership and no longer have a warranty of sorts to cover the trip on a flat bed. I guess with a traditional 5 bolt wheel, you can have any shop remove and replace a tire 'if' they have that tire.
The only time I'll ever take the wheels off myself is when I do the ceramic coating on them, so that's like once in three years.

Thanks for the words and sorry for derailing the thread a bit. Promise to post some pics when it's here. Doing ED in October, so I'm guessing won't be here until December.

Thanks. It’s Agate Grey actually. I have been so happy with this decision. It at times shows like Aventurine, but also at times has a slightly bluish grey depending on the light. I love green, but find aventurine to be a bit too “yellow/brown” in certain light. The Agate is more my style. I can’t be happier with this car. It’s pure joy….

EDIT -- just realized both Aventurine Green and Agate Grey are AG. Meant the green in the above comment.

I doubt the aerokit wing will fit on a cab. The "trunk" assembly on the cabs is totally different from the coupes.
