In my experience, I've seen the most scuffs in my PPF in the most obvious area, the front. There's also been some impacts on my mirror covers, and even a rock impact on the front part of my roof that an SUV in front of me kicked up a few months ago. I'd also separately recommend getting...

I'm really hoping us FE owners get the technical updates as a TSB 🤞

I'd like to join for the Father's Day meet too 🙏

I happened to buy this for my Emira and it's been great. I rarely scrape but there's always the odd driveway entrance that I fall victim to once in a while, and I like having the peace of mind knowing that the bumper didn't take the damage. My PPF guy did a great job installing it too so you...

Spotted a Seneca Blue leaving South OC (San Clemente) C&C just earlier. I arrived late so the main lot was already blocked off and by the time I walked there you were already leaving. A shame I didn't get to say hi!

I originally bought a Nextbase 622GW bundle, but my dashcam installer advised against it due to heat concerns. The way the rear cam is angled, I was planning to have it installed on the glass in the engine bay, and it wouldn't be practical installing it behind the rear cabin glass. He ended up...

I myself got the VDDM update last week when I took my Emira in for repairs, apparently I had all the other stuff done during a previous service visit back in April. The dealer couldn't tell me anything about it and I felt no difference other than slightly smoother shifting (V6 auto) but perhaps...

The recent unveiling of the Jim Clark Edition gave me the idea that it would be cool to have front fog lights along these edges, for a more angular and aggressive "fang" look over the previously discussed straight horizontal lines. 🤔

I'd definitely like a matte version of that. I have the Jogon pieces that cover the chrome above it, running through the bottom of the speaker grille. I feel like this would really compliment the look.

Believe it or not, this exact same thing happened to me while swapping to the GRP carbon fiber engine cover. A single bolt wasn't threaded properly from the factory, and the ball end was stuck inside the grommet. When I took the lower cover off, I carefully pulled it with both hands, but it...

A fun and unforgettable day. It was a pleasure meeting all of you!

I'm honestly not sure 😅. If @silent cilantro wouldn't mind letting me know either here or in DM how much he let his set go for, I wouldn't mind letting it go for the same amount.

If they were sold and anyone else is looking, I also have a set (plus nose badge). Replaced the ones on my Hethel Yellow Emira with black.

Personally, I use Koch Chemie's All-round Quick Detailer spray.

I also keep mine in my pocket, particularly jacket or button-up shirt pocket. Sometimes I get lazy and just have it in the passenger's seat when I'm driving alone, but I'm making a conscious effort to stop doing that. A couple of times, it's been heavy enough to set off the passenger's side...

Would you mind doing a version of mockups with the full Black Pack? It'd help me visualize if it looks good on my Emira. The YT video did pique my interest so far 🤔

Has anyone else unexpectedly received another Lotus battery tender lately? I found it extremely strange that my dealer (Galpin) shipped me another one, but I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. I just found it humorous because I only have one car. Guess this means I need to get another Lotus. 😏

Very similar to how mine sounds. Mine has more of a metallic ringing to it as well. I had my stock steering wheel changed out for a GRP custom wheel, which also uses an OEM core. I don't think that should make any difference to the sound whatsoever, but I just wanted to mention that just in...

Good to hear that it's normal. I've been worried about that too 😅. It's a very loud clonk.

Just bumping this to see if there's been any progress cause I'd really love to buy a set. I currently have the Jogon carbon fiber "EMIRA" stick-ons, and they're nice but I'd replace them with this in a heartbeat.

Welcome back to the forums,and grats! Love the Cosmos Black cat 😺

Sorry,I should have been more specific: I meant compared to the Evora which it directly replaced. Same engine, and there were 400HP variants but the later variants had 416 and even 430HP @7000 RPM. That's another thing, our redline sits at 6800 RPM stock and I've seen talk about these numbers...

Pertaining specifically to US Emira owners: As I'm sure some of you know, the bill was introduced back in February and will shake up the trajectory of the car industry if it eventually passes. There's many facets to this new piece of legislation but I'm mostly specifically interested in the...

That half-Union Jack on the front center grille looks so good. I'd love that on my Emira.

I've finally got around to installing my matte fishbone GRP set. The fitment left a little to be desired and there were small cosmetic blemishes but overall I'm pretty satisfied with it. I lost one of the plastic bolts that fit into the rubber grommets because it wasn't threaded into the OEM...

Thanks for this. I've got a V6 auto and I have a set myself still in boxes. Life circumstances, including a lot of home repairs/renovations have prevented me from finding time to get these installed, and this thread definitely helps.

I have the V6 version and just got my car back a few days ago after having my break-in oil changed plus the software updates. I can definitely feel the same changes. If I need a burst of acceleration, I can still get it, but it just takes slightly longer to kick in. Very subtle but noticeable.

I bought a matte fishbone set from GRP, which I received already, but my car's still being serviced by my dealer so I'll post pics once I get the car back soon.

Touring here with the Goodyears. Here in the East LA / OC area there's lots of roads with cracks and the setup I chose handles them well.

Oh my apologies, I just meant that I bought a set of the press-only type buttons to go along with the custom steering wheel. It'd be cool if Jogon made a set of the CF surrounds.

So sorry to see this happen to you. Hit and runs make my blood boil, especially since my mom had an incident 2 years ago. This is why I always advocate for having a dashcam as one of the first things to install in a new car. It looks fixable to me, but I suppose it's up to your insurance...

Just to add another data point, I'm in SoCal and I went with Geico. $2,598 a year, $1000 deductible. All the other quotes, particularly from Nationwide and Progressive were ridiculously high.

I'm using Geico 🦎 here in SoCal, $2598/yr for comprehensive coverage, $1k deductible.

Brand new,never installed, with locking tabs and original box. The only reason I'm selling these is because since the time I bought them, my Emira was sitting in a shop for 2 months having some work done on it, and in that time, I noticed that they have a new version with the embroidered...

Here's a fun little photo I took just now of a worker bee trying very hard to pollinate my Emira 🐝
