There are quite a few places online depending on where you are based?
I was thinking of getting a couple more bits done.
Phil (Contigo) on here has a contact who seems to do some good work - and a couple of other forum members had contacts in birmingham etc.

I saw that !! INSANE! Those look **** too - short and stumpy. You can get a full carbon trofeo bonnet for that price (Which is still ridiculous IMHO)

If you still need photos I'll try and get some tomorrow.
(I think Ian's are likely the same as in my Sport, though in the only current photo I have they may be a tad longer).

That puts it in context. I'm with Stuart - would be happy to have them, but wouldn't pay daft money for them. Better spent on fuel and tyres, in my humble.
Trying to get my head around the allure of carbon fibre. I get it as a material for performance/weight/stiffness, but for bling? Not so sure.
However I'm getting a little bit of paddle envy since my QP doesn't have any. I've tried using the ZF auto box in manual with the stick but the involvement isn't there. I'm not sure that it would change if I had paddles either. The trouble, even though you are n manual, the box auto shifts up anyway when you get to the red line, and down when breaking, say for a roundabout. Wish there was some way of stopping this.

I just want those paddles to grab, and the missing piece around the gear surround that really, really bothers me.

Dipping definitely the answer for you for the centre gear surround I think

Looks stunning.
Where are they based - tempted to get my side skirts done and some internals.

Thanks Stuart, Dream car for me. I had a Black MC Shift a few years ago, then traded it for a 991 Carrera S. When this came up, I bought it as soon as Nareman started it! Theres something really exotic about it.

Let me know how it goes Phil.
The Alcantara and Carbon interior on mine really makes it feel special. I think Dipping is the way forward rather than buying them exorbitantly from FD etc.
I am still interested in spacers on the back wheels - where did you get them from in the end? What are you getting dipped?
