Thx!! I'm thinking of just letting a shop cut a hole in my db trim for the convertible button cutout. If I do order a new db trim with the convertible cut out already there it's going to cost $180 and there on backorder from Germany

^ maybe when I get tired of my db trim I'll wrap or buy the cf trim but for now the db is nice especially when the sun hits the trim

But I just ordered a set if acs pedals , I plan on getting the acs export exhaust and the acs front lip , and the rear acs rear add on lip as soon as cecwheels gets back to me with a package price.

I do have the db center console but stupid me forgot that the e92coupe center trim doesn't have the convertible button cutout. So I plan on just getting my db center trim cut so my convertible button can fit

Just noticed you totally answered that same question on this same page like 5 or 6 posts ago my bad. I only looked at the finished product of the EBrake.

But cool. Do you ever regret the convertible vs coupe given its increased weight? While its awhile down the road I'm considering either M3 or 335 as my next car so am curious.

Lol I just noticed I did answer that question over a million times lol

But yea my vert weighs 400lbs more then the coupe bu my car still seems quick. It probably has to do with having 300 hp/tq available at 1300 rpm. Even though my car weighs almost 4000lbs but it still hauls as$!!!

My next car will be a M3

Yea that might just have something to do with it lol. It makes a big difference with the G37's when comparing those (actually drove that comparison... its very noticeable) so was curious from an owner.

I've been waiting to see someone do a more rigorous test of the RS5 as well since its supposed to be a challenger to the M3 and I've loved the Audi fleet of late. Only one I've seen so far is the one Top Gear did this past week and the RS5 came up short. Still that's one track test... will need to see a few more.
