We don’t need history. The NOW is fantastic.

Hood decal is my favorite part of the entire car! The shoulder stripe is the one I’m actually struggling with right now

Ya it’s fun that you can mix and match parts of the kit to make something unique. Here’s a pic that actually shows the graphic with more contrast. Either the rocker decal or shoulder decal will probably get pulled, but I LOVE how over the top it all is-reminds me of a sport bike.

I really do appreciate your photos because when I first saw a rocker decal, I thought I wanted one. Then I saw they had the hip decal and went for that, but didn't apply the hood decal. Very happy with it. Just a touch of color to break up the sea of blue. I don't like the M performance rocker decal, but that's me.

I am happy it is two tone, but I didn't know that going into it.


I know it's not everyone's taste, but that the beauty of individualization, and I'm glad it's a decal that can be easily undone. I wouldn't paint it.

In any case, they're beautiful cars nonetheless!

Love your build, I was actually using your photos as a reference for installing the shoulder decal. I had no idea the rocker decal was two toned until I pulled off the transfer tape after install

My rocker panel decal came in this week. I looked at it with the tape still on. I don't see any grey on it. It looks black all the way. Did yours too? My build is brooklyn grey, so I'm not sure how the 2 greys will blend.

Saw this Toronto Red over Cognac M2 being delivered at my local dealer. TR is way more orange in person than I thought it would be.

From what I saw, it is more orange in overcast and red in the sun. I love orange and red so it's perfect for me

boring shot, but I just got 'er home. Looking menacing!

Had 13 miles on it, also PS4Ss. Dealer didn't drill for the front plate. I couldn't be happier!

How did you feel about the combo of TR w/ cognac in person? Debating TR/congac w/ cf roof OR TR w/ the carbon pack and can’t decide (very different, I know!)
