Lori, great looking car. I especially love the insignia in black as well as the tires. Sharp looking all around. Can't wait to get my car back. Have to wait another two weeks, but she's getting there. Best of luck my dear. If I can offer one mod that you should add it's the K40 system. Great to have.
Also get the clear side markers. They would look great with your car.
Be safe, Jay

Love the wheels.
Congrats and enjoy!

Looks sweet. I assume u are here in the Northeast given the trees in the backround of that photo and your weather update. Which dealership did you use? I bought mine thru New Country in Greenwich and was happy with the details I had them add at delivery; K40 w/ laser difusors I highly reccomend as it's the most unobtrusive set-up in terms of stealth and it has already saved me a laser tkt. Definitely get the clear bra done before u pick it up especially assuming u will be driving it this time of year. I did the front bumper, and door pull cups only but most go with hood also. I would reccomend NOT getting the sport shifter YET. Couple of reasons are the stock shifter already has reduced throws vs older models, during the break-in period the new shifter tends to be a little notchy from 1'st - 2'nd and in the Northeast cold that issue gets amplified. I decided to use the stock shifter during the 2k break-in and especially now with the cold temps I'm very happy I waited. It will be fun to be able to upgrade to sport shifter soon after enjoying an already good stock set-up. That's my .02...is your car a C2S or C4S? Hard to tell with the painted model in that small photo.

If the dealer is crawfishing on installing a clear bra, I'd go somewhere else. From personal experience, I can tell you that the installer makes all the difference in what it ends up looking like. I would risk rock chips during the time between picking up the car and getting a clear bra over having one installed poorly.

Lori, yes your dealer should be able to install your K40. Make sure they have a cerified person to do it. I've seen some installs that weren't as clean when done by an unauthorized tech. Hey post some pics of the interior. Another mod that's not too costly and looks great is the pedal set from Carnewal.com. Enjoy your car my dear. Click link herehttp://www.carnewal-europe.com/
