To me lines of the F8 and more specifically, the different/smaller opening of the hood compared to the Pista, make the no-stripe look great....
I’m interested in this discussion as well. Spent 5k on a DCT leak on my former 458 that Power 15 did not cover (very clear in the warranty...
Mike is THE BEST. Helped me find my next car. Ultra-responsive, hustled to get me a win, and a great guy all-around. Total asset, very grateful...
Quick clarification after feeling around my car’s stripe: In some places, the stripe feels completely smooth. In others, there is very tiny/slight...

Because I’m a small fry!
When I was shopping for my Pista a couple years ago, I was asking your exact question. At the time, I could not find anyone who had successfully...
Got it thanks for sharing @popsmuf
What motivated you to complete the conversion asap rather than wait for your lithium battery to show signs of weakness?
@popsmuf What did you replace it with?
Flat
Seems like what you’re describing would fall under preventative maintenance which the warranty does not cover. I also doubt it falls under any of...
