    Actually, now I'm not sure. I thought the flag was upside down for its horizintal orientation but it is actually correct.

    So what am I missing?

    I must be dumb as I cannot see it either, aside from the numbers on the case which I find a little odd.

    I assume its the chassis number of the car but hardly necessary and spoils the look.

    Funny for a neutral, but understandably extremely frustrating given how much these items cost. I bought the luggage for my 458 SA, then never used the bags because they were just too ''loud'' for my part of the world and so have avoided the expense since. Look on the bright side, even though the bags are 1/1, with spec and chassis number, they're definitely collectibles now!

    One question in general: how does these set fit in the TDF compartment? My F12 Berlinetta set looks completly different from its shapes. I have a set with suitcases for the trunk and bags for the compartment behind the seats.

    I'm not sure - the luggage showed up 2 weeks after the car so I haven't tried it

    I have some blue stuff coming with my 70th 488 as was persuaded it would be icing on the cake for resale ! May need something ! Look at seats.

    Any feature on that luggage that needs explaining is a failure on the designers part.

    Is it possible that based on how the luggage is oriented on the rear shelf it would look correct? If the handles are facing the rear, won't it look correct? I think its crazy no matter what, but just a thought.

    no idea but even if thats the case the flag shld be a function of the handles
    guess when you ask for an italian flag like the italian flag option i have on the seats and steering wheel they feel its fine to give you the hungarian flag

    so out of curiosity, what's the "make this right" solution?

    FWIW I've dealt with Schedoni directly on a few things and they are awesome, though at times somewhat slow given their small scale and long backlog - but they seem to still operate as a family business.

    I'm unsure what the dealer or even FNA might know what to do. While a hassle, I'd be disposed towards
    1) sending them back to be replaced, though more likely just "corrected" (i.e. flag replaced), as long as Schedoni is doing it, I'm sure it will be good quality (and, I'm assuming it's still Schedoni)
    2) I think that pile of hungarian leather you have is....$12K? I'd be irritable having paid that much for a "custom" item and have it be wrong. And I'd get it fixed, I'm also anal enough.
    3) if somehow you're left holding the bag (literally), I'd imagine Coachtrim can correct this for you, and do it well and probably quickly.....presuming you and/or the dealer and/or FNA are willing to pay.

    im not willing to pay for it. i ordered it correctly. They can replace, send to johann, anything that gets it right. They are willing to do zero. I'm asking for a refund.
