Don’t think this is a carbon model
The carbon mirrors, side skirts and spoiler not enough to make you think it is? Or the wheels that are only for carbon black models? Or the black badges that go on the carbon black models? :tearsofjoy: :tearsofjoy:

Just on the wind up, I'd say with all the kit being bang on what a carbon black model would get that's what it is.

I think that would look better in black because you'd at least have the red brakes to contrast a little bit. This is just a little bit too murdered out for my liking I think.

Totally get that mate. My Cupra has angles and I too see the difference in shades with the paint. Like you have said before, if you keep looking back at it and saying “yeah” then you know it’s the right choice. :rockwoot:

hmm just noticed you have got contrast colour valve caps.
Car looking incredible :icon thumright:

Same on my 8V Glenn, they were silver valve stems against gloss black rims.

You’ve paid more attention that me - I hadn’t spotted that!

Might change those to black…

I know mine are dark colour but will need to check they are the high quality ones and not just regular black plastic.

On my winters I bought gloss black TPMS stems by a third party company.

a question for launch edition owners:

does your engine cover differ from this (carbon trim) ?

thought LE had plain and not CF?
that’s pretty much what I’m wondering as carbon edition did say carbon engine cover so be interested to see LE car for comparison ... not that I look at my engine that often lol
