looks like there is someone standing next to the "twin" so its definitely not a mirror image. Maybe Bob ordered 2 by accident

Congratulations Bob. Looking forward to more pictures.

The twin belongs to Marty Robinson. The two cars arrived on the same truck. They are virtually identical, mine has alcantara sun visors. Why? To make it easy to remove those hideous air bag stickers

Here is another, note the flare on the front fender and the change made to the side marker light to handle th additional width. Attention to detail! Sorry about the dust, better pics when I get the car on Monday. By the way, I got the lighting right on this one. It is hard to get the grey to reproduce properly. The first shot I poste makes it look nearly black, which is it not.

Let me know if you figure out how to do that.

Already done. Requires only a Mark II fingernail. The stickers don't adhere well to Alcantara which is why I bought them in the first place

Interesting... I tried on a Cayenne with alcantara and the stickers were fused in the material.

Hmm, I wonder if it is a matter of how long they've been there? Mine peeled off fairly easily.

NICE,VERY NICE

You have to let us know your LCMT times, and how the two cars compare.
