The highest quality work I have seen has been done by Horacio Pagani's company PCR. Sometimes it seems like the difference between a craftsman and an artist.

If that was the case then all supplier liability will have evaporated and Porsche will be on their own with this issue.

Aaaarrggg! After my prior post stating "not a hint of yellowing" in my CGT, I rolled it into the bright sun at Road America's Porsche Park last weekend and discover both door panels and side pockets have yellowed (though neither the tub nor side panels in the engine bay). "Gold carbon" would work with the terracotta interior except for the fact that the rest has not changed from original. The contrast sucks.

Phewww.., I knew there was a reason why I sold my CGT! I'm glad I won't be affected or caught up in this nightmare ordeal! Hopefully something like this won't happen to any of my replacements! Magwheel

Thanks VR, Appreciate the comp!
What are you going to do? Abandon ship and jump to a new Marque?
The CGT was a unreal car! I'm just am able to take the F430s out everyday (almost) with a little less hassle and a more normal driving atmosphere. I hope you get your situation straightened out without too much stress and strain! Mags

Before you guys get all giddy over Ferrari, the CS had carbon fiber issues as well, and a lot were not covered under warranty. Mine was, but only because of the relationship with the dealer. Apparently, some CGT owners have had it replaced as well...take that FWIW.
Sweet car Mag, that one's a keeper !!!
