I just know that if I don't have it installed my wife will be the one pulled over. Not sure I want to deal with that.

No sir, not at all.

Didn't have a state issued one on my previous modded 335 either. Total about 5.5 years of no hassle driving in CT and I commute about 70 miles/day.

I'd say you're safe.

Thanks - have reached out to inform the dealer to not install the front plate. Here goes nothing.

Finally she is home where she belongs. Carbon Black on black. Let the good times roll.

One slight screw up with the delivery was that the rear heated seats I had ordered where not installed. A little dissapointing.

Great combination. Classic. Have fun with it.

Did the dealer mess things up and not order the rear heated seats? Everything's so automated these days, you never hear of a factory mess up with something like that.

Also, it's a shame that they've gone to the black trim around the shifter and no longer carry the CF down there. The black trim is so hard to maintain.

I was able to ask the same thing about the rear heated seats. My dealer actually did miss the same thing on my order. It is easy to miss because it is an extra option within executive package, I found the problem while double checking the order and they were able to fix it in time before production. I haven't got my car yet, so hopefully the factory has not messed it up but will know in a few days.

Anyway not a big deal - color looks great and enjoy!

Is yours a 2021? From your inside picture your center console doesnt seem to have any CF on all black?

Yep, that's a new "feature" on MY21. Bugs me to no end, but what can you do? I'm sure my eyes will adapt to it quickly.

What floor mats do you have in it? Looks awesome by the way, I have the same build coming in a few weeks except with red calipers.

Yea, never been a fan of the black piano finish as it shows all dust and scratches. Looks good with the CF though but wish tey would have just extended the CF to the center console as part of the package. Perhaps that is reserved for the M car.

Thanks, the dealer was very sorry about the mix up with the rear heated seats that he threw in a set of the all weather floor mats and trunk liner.
