What did you do to your Emira today?

I purchased mine for about US$30 + ship, from TaoBao, which some describe as the Chinese eBay. It took some effort, using Google Translate. You can also buy it with less of a language barrier but for more money, from AliExpress. Last I checked, anyway. Good luck finding yours.
Love it! What brand did you go with for this? Fit looks really good. I've been on the fence about getting this, as my Emira came with the privacy glass which frankly makes the view of the engine a little too hard to see. That said, it's all matte black plastic so there isn't much trying to be seen right now. With the matte carbon+privacy glass would anyone be able to see it unless the trunk was open? But I was concerned about reflections if I got the glossy carbon. So I started small and got the solid aluminum washer fluid cap from GRP (which looks great and you now badly need one to complete your engine bay), and found even in the yellow aluminum I get no reflection at all.
So I'm ready to take the plunge and just need to know which brand people have had good results with. Thanks!

Took mine to the SELOC Lotus Owners Breakfast meet in Colchester, Essex.
There were about 20 cars there; 3 Emiras, an Evora, a lovely Elan 2 and the rest were Elises of various persuasions - all very nice cars.
I've not been on a "car meetup" like this for over 20 years since the old "Fish'n'Chip Shop" runs in my Elise, so it was really nice to meet everyone. Apart from the average age of the owners not much has changed, everyone still really friendly. Surprisingly, this was the first time I have seen an Emira on the road in the UK, even in the UK they are still a fairly rare car.

That’s sounds great.. I’ll try to attend the next one. Oddly, I’ve only ever seen another Emira on the road in Colchester which was where I went to buy my car.
I live in the Midwest United States and our cars are unicorns here.
In 14 years, I never saw another Evora on the road and only a couple at a car show.
I have only seen two other Emira in person.
I saw the press car in St. Louis about 18 months ago and I saw a yellow one while riding a bike trail sitting in a parking lot.
I put my Emira back on the scales. New lower weight of 3,253 lbs. Full mod list can be found here: https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/dragoons-emira-build.5101/page-2#post-174200
I bought from someone who never installed it because they sold the car. The kit is from GRP. The fit is good. Having privacy glass will certainly make it hard to see. One reason I did not opt for the dark glass.
