The stripes kind of got a little lost after I had the clear "bra" material on the ENTIRE car. But the yellow headlights and smoked taillights were pretty awesome.

I have sold the cup a while ago. I only have a lowly Boxster Spyder now. (It is actually my favorite street Porsche I have owned though).
Have fun in the RS and have fun blacking it out.

I bought the car from SwitchCars. He had the black out stuff done before I bought it. And they wrapped the entire car in clear bra for me - one heck of a job but it was perfectly done!

My Raptor is actually not in my possession yet. It should be here in the next 2 weeks or so. I cant wait - should be a fun truck.

The adaptive Sport Seats will not fit with the clubsport roll bar.
.1 and .2 bar are pretty much the same. The constructor,Semcon made a few subtle changes im sure between the two but the design and placement are the same.
The GT2 seats fit with clubsport roll bar. All the way back it may touch a little, or maybe not at all with .2 version but either way it is not a big deal.
Since you wish to run adaptive seats for daily use, i think the only route is the tequipment bar.
FWIW, the cost of a set of new Porsche black wheels and a new tequipment bar from Suncoast would be money well spent. When it comes time for resale you can always sell them again to offset the cost and get 50% back.
I know the GT2 seats are a little harder to get in and out for daily use therefore i can see why you do not wish to have them full time.
All the american made roll bars have larger diameter tubing compared to the clubsport thus im not sure if it would help the situation either.....

Thanks!
Yeah I know. I can remember how bad it sucked though with the seat getting into the bar. Have you looked at the GMG? I looked at the rims at suncoast...at 7k I might just paint them black and worry about it later. Absolute worst case is reselling the painted ones and buying some new orange ones.

Now, all you need to decide is if you want Satin black or Gloss black painted wheels
As to the GT3RS graphics, before you remove them, do you have clear bra over them? If you have good clear bra over them then perhaps keep them and just add black wheels?
if you have no clear bra over them then remove them to make the car look more current and subtle.
The next question is to decide on painting the mirrors and winglets.....
I would avoid adding any .2 or 4.0 graphics on the car.
