'Tuther thread gone of the rails, so a new one for those that have an interest in the car

Trying to get my head around the three trims levels, coupe, Lux and Performance

I struggle with words so I popped it into excel biggrin

Red items in performance are items not mentioned so fair to assume they are missing.

Id ideally want Lux - for the extended leather, seats, and window trim..... but being a sucker for carbon fiber and contrasting ascents, performance may be a better choice...so bit torn nerd

its the only way, especially on the 720s were it curves in at the bottom rear. Is it being offered as an extra or do you have to do it yourself?
I'll get it done afterwards, most dealerships just sub contract it out - so no point paying them hundreds to call someone , I could speak to direct.

My car won't arrive till end of the year 2017 /start 2018 - so they should be a few choices out by then for which PPF kit to use.



Great photo (found on Facebook)

No, there's a hole between the front fin and door skin with full exposure to the front wheel.... so I'm talking the whole side being at risk...
yes you can see in this pic that part of the wheel is exposed (not covered by the wheel liner)

Trying to work out how the novel aero at the front of the door works ... does the front edge of the door protrude out wider than the rest of the car?

If the air intake and radiators are fed through the double skinned doors ... which in turn look like they grab air from somewhere around the front wheel arch? ... won't you get a load of crap thrown up off the road in there?
The door skin/ surface is at risk from some exposure to the face of the tyres (this air not on its way to the engine)
The air intake (engine intake) is fed from air from the top of the bonnet, channelling down into the double skin.
