Very cool indeed!! Have you seen Darren's (DBYT) blue with Luxor + deviated red stitching + red belts? It looks awesome so as will be yours! Can't wait to see pics!
Here's his thread with lots of pics - he has lots of carbon fiber mods...

Actually, Darren was kind enough to help me with the process after he'd seen my original configuration and showed me all of his pics. He was the first in America to do the deviated on Luxor so 4 of his pics are actually being used by Porsche Exclusive to show buyers what to expect since they didn't have any factory pics to refer to!

Can't wait to take them! Should be on Sunday and then after that, a few new ones with the 7mm & 14mm spacers and aluminum pedals, probably Tuesday.

Actually, mine got to port weeks early but sat in port 2.5 weeks to get onboard the ship. Fortunately, however, Brunswick is the first port of call for the car carriers going there so transit time is only about 11 - 14 days to get across the pond. Maybe you'll be lucky and get aboard the next freighter out. There are 3 scheduled sailings from Emden headed to Brunswick and their arrival dates are Sept. 9th, 16th & 24th. Hope yours is on the vessel arriving on the 9th, but that ship sailed 5 days ago so maybe it'll be on this Saturday's sailing.
