I found a local leather interior shop that's highly reviewed that will do the visors for "280 - 350/ea" with matched stitching/etc. I will do this once my car comes in, and maybe a few more interior bits, like the steering column.

You can likely find something near you without too much difficulty.

I honestly can't think of any option(s) I'd have selected that I didn't. I'm really happy with how my C2S turned out. There are a few options I am really glad I did select: Extended Range Fuel Tank, Lightweight/Quiet Glass, 18 Way Seats and the Sport Chrono package.

The solution is to buy new full leather visors - easily sourced from Suncoast new at a fairly exorbitant price, or if you get lucky, maybe you can find on ebay from someone parting out a wreck.

EDIT: this guy had his visors custom done with leather - looks pretty great and is a good option: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fELkuChAtx8

I took my stickers off last week.

Took about 30 min each. I do this on all my cars

You need a sponge, rubbing alcohol, and some patience

The only thing I didn’t get was the led matrix headlights. Since they weren’t actually enabled, I didn’t see why I should spend the money. Jury is still out whether dealers will activate them but going forward hopefully they are already functional in the US.

I did not check the LED either and I am not disappointed. The Standard lights are pretty much all black and look really cool so I really do not know what I would be missing

For whatever reason, the stupid stickers don't bother me. I get it and, given my OCD, I am actually surprised that they don't bother me. But I cannot honestly ever remember even noticing them.

On former Porsches and including my Macan Turbo the stickers are more understated . On this car its blaring . They consume nearly the entire visor side . When one sees them he may feel inclined to see if they peel off . Thats when you notice not only the sticker but how cheap the leatherette visor is .

They don’t bother either. They never have…..on any car.

With each post in this thread, the likelihood these won't bother me drops 10 points!

The residual rectangle where the stickers were may bother you more than the stickers themselves.

Drew46,
As a fellow OCD-er, I am laughing at your posts. Drop everything and get out there in your garage with the alcohol swabs and get this done asap!

I would except for one key factor - the car is not here yet! I have cleared the port inspection and waiting for it to be shipped to the dealership.
