The 430 has (real) carbon roof and the gloss black sail panel looks akward beside it imho.

You sure your a-pillar trims arent actual carbon? You get them (and they arent cheap).

So far neither Win 8 or WinXP VMs have taken to the drivers.

Now trying Win 7.

Sigh.

If you look at a standard Evora over an SR-packed one, the latter looks much sleeker, especially on white (like Mik's) and red, etc.

Funnily enough, it's Lotus's own gallery where their 410 is a similar colour to mine, and I didn't like the black against the (real) CF in their pictures. It looks like bits were missed. Hence me thinking about CF and asking if they can CF the sail panel too for consistency.

Hence the choice. If I go gloss black roof and sills, I think it'll look odd against the CF look of the barge boards and the A-pillars (which I will check, but I don't think they're real.....)

Don't listen to these philistines Beany. You go there. Remap the hood. Flash the ABS ecu. Activate the seatbelt warning chime, even for unoccupied seats.

YOU CAN DO IT.

Fuck, I’m agreeing with Rich again!

Although I’d say don’t wrap the roof. I love the way the two painted corners meet at the rear.
