Default Two Questions

I'm finalizing my build (Volcano Grey exterior) and have two questions for those who have taken delivery: 1. Paint the exterior mirrors to match car color, yes or no; Thermal/Insulated Glass, yes or no. Thanks.

I test drove the turbo, there is no thermal/insulated glass but it was still a comfortable drive! Very silent!

My mirrors are painted the color of car. Looks very nice and complete.

As for the glass, this thing is a vault with respect to silence (except for the glorious exhaust) so I don't think you need much more than that. I tinted my glass so that takes care of any thermal issues.

I've been wondering about the benefit of the double glazing. Good to know it's quiet without it.

Thanks.

I have the 21" wheels and think there is some tire noise at higher speeds....I also have the volcano grey what interior did you choose? i chose the chalk...its very airy.

I need a tint but the tint guy said he would not do it.
