Porsche cutting corners by charging to pain parts on 981

You'll drive yourself crazy if you try to figure out their pricing structure and options. At the end of the day, I propose you'll just need to look at the bottom line price of what you want and decide whether it's worth it to you. For example, if the base price of the car were $1,920 higher and these parts came painted (with a $0 delete option), we'd probably never notice and wouldn't complain. Pricing is as much about the marketing as it is about what it really costs them for the options.

Having said that, I paid the money to have the wings painted on the lower part of the mirrors. In order to paint those wings, you have to remove the mirrors. To remove the mirrors on the new body style, you must pull the glass which means unbolting the outer skin on the door. That’s too much work on a brand spanking new car.

Mark-My Panamera wings are held in with one or two torx screws and popped right out, lets hope the 981's are the same. Dont quote me, but since my Panamera had puddle lamps, this may be the reason for easy removal, to change the bulb. I ordered my Guards red today and it should arrive about the same time as yours. If you are spraying Guards, can I ship my wings and a couple other items to you? Shoot me a PM!
