Yup, those are pretty friggin' sweet.
Mine is a couple of years older (996) and it takes an entire 2.7 seconds to go from 0-60

Paint or GTFO!! CGM is the only car that really pulls off the unpainted GFX IMO. It doesn't look bad unpainted on your black, but I think it would look better painted.

Yeah, it matches Brian's car very well & looks great. I like it on my black car when it's dark or cloudy out, but in the sunshine it really shows off the 2 tone look. I was leaning towards having them painted black, but just was scared it may not be as durable to road debris as just leaving them unpainted.

I'm doing well and yes I saw it last weekend. We enjoyed it and it was much better than the previous movie.
