    Wow! How trusting! Turned out great!
    The only thing I’d change is swap the red and green on the ps and reverse buttons :)

    Ha. She wanted to put our birthstones somewhere in the car. Mine being emerald and hers being Perl. The dealership made a suggestion and she thought it was perfect. The red is for Ferrari.

    Awesome. My 16 yo daughter is designing my Targa GTS 4 but I'll have to see it before it locks.

    She did a great job, and what a great memory you'll have forever.

    My girlfriend came with me to spec my last car and chose pink as the main color, I issued an executive veto.:D

    I agree, I would definitely do the front as well. On my GTS I wrapped my carbon in satin ppf to give it the matte look. Since you're in DC bring it by Glaswerks for the film. I'll meet you there and you can check it out.

    I’d definitely scrap those floor mats, but the rest looks good.

    Congratulations! The car came out great, what a wonderful memory, and I think the floor mats are the icing on the cake.

    So well done, bravo! Congratulations again to you, your daughter and family! [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122]

    Better spec than most. Perhaps others here should solicit her aesthetic talents.
